The former head teacher of a Birmingham school at the heart of the Trojan Horse plot claims he was forced out after a campaign of “emotional harassment” by Muslim governors.
Balwant Bains, a Sikh who was sent on ‘gardening leave’ from Saltley School in October last year, claims he was pushed out for refusing to stop teaching pupils British values.
