| Introduction | I work in a church of england primary school where most of the kids are Muslim, I have 2 kids of my own. I think that being the head of a church school is a wonderful opportunity and privilege but absolutely take on board Richard Dawkins allegation that liberal church schools can provide cover for much more socially destructive ones. I dislike the polemic one both sides of the faith schools debate - the church of england likes to assert uncritically that they are a good thing whilst not owning that sometimes, some of them are not. |
