Ofsted was accused of “political correctness” after downgrading a top rural primary school for effectively being too English.
The education watchdog faced a backlash from MPs and parents following the decision to penalise Middle Rasen primary in Lincolnshire for not having enough black or Asian pupils.
In a report, inspectors said the school was “not yet outstanding” because pupils’ cultural development was limited by a “lack of first-hand experience of the diverse make up of modern British society”. The move followed a shake-up of Ofsted inspections introduced in the wake of the “Trojan Horse” plot in Birmingham to impose hard-line Muslim values in state schools.
Schools are now told to place fundamental British values at the heart of the timetable including mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs.
But the reforms have already been criticised for having a knock-on effect on faith schools and those dominated by pupils of a particular ethnic group.
Last month, it was claimed that a small Christian school in the Home Counties had been penalised after failing to other invite faith leaders, such as imams, in to lead assemblies.

That would be the UK which is 92% white. Nonsense. Utter nonsense.
Me give up.
I’m over here in the United States, but I read a lot of British history and I know that Sir Walter Raleigh is supposed to come roaring back when England in in peril. It is later than he thinks.
So what is it supposed to be? Martian?
King Arthur.

CPS (Chicago Public School's are trying to promote "safe" anal sex. CPS also claims the stuff the parents saw was a mistake. ONLY the teachers were supposed to see the stuff.)
Not to be picky, but (I got this off the internet) I also love King Arthur.
Drake’s Drum
When the British naval hero Sir Francis Drake—who defeated the invading Spanish Navy in 1588—passed away, he bequeathed his battle snare drum to Buckland Abbey, with the pledge that, if England was in danger once more, the drum should be struck and he would return. Naturally, there are claims that the drum has been heard during many subsequent attacks on English soil, or at key moments of national crisis.
My point is that I got the two mixed up.
You never answer the blody question?
LOL
Sorry, I thought I did. In a blunt way.
The whole thing is stupid at best, insidious at worst.
Only saving grace is that it’ll drive people to UKIP.
