Education Secretary Michael Gove made the pledge after chief schools inspector Sir Michael Wilshaw warned the activities of some hard-line Muslim governors had led to a culture of fear and intimidation being rife in some of the schools inspected as a result of the investigation.

 

In otherwords a panic measure will little substance dreamt up by a desperate government trying to alleviate public opinion and in the vain hope of trying to claw votes back from UKIP

Schools will be told they must promote “British values” in the classroom in the wake of the Birmingham “Trojan Horse” investigation into allegations of a takeover of the city’s schools by hard-line Islamists.

 

Education Secretary Michael Gove made the pledge after chief schools inspector Sir Michael Wilshaw warned the activities of some hard-line Muslim governors had led to a culture of fear and intimidation being rife in some of the schools inspected as a result of the investigation.

This is obviously a Sheffield and nationwide issue so deserves pride of place in the Sheffield section, so, what do you think are essential British values that schools are now supposed to promote and how on earth do they implement them, should there be an American style allegiance and citizenship procedures or should there be dedicated subjects at educational level discussing everything relating to Great Britain?

 

What British values? I don't think they exist any more.

That's because they never existed in the first place. Now we are being assimilated by The Borg

I think they do. We queue like no other country on earth for one. We generally have a sense of fair play.

funnily enough which those of a right wing nature and who bang on about british values tend to want to erode :suspect:

such as our fair play even during adversity in wars and with terrorists and criminals, the human rights act, punishments etc

where us as british tend to stay stood head and shoulders above others even under such adversity
