The head of a Birmingham school at the centre of a threatened pupil boycott over LGBT equality messages has pledged: "I will not back down".
Protestors claimed they had the backing of the majority of parents at Anderton Park Primary in Moseley for plans to withdraw children.
Lead campaigner Shakeel Afsar - not a parent at the school himself - said the boycott would go ahead unless the head Sarah Hewitt-Clarkson stopped 'LGBT equality lessons' and quit her post.
He claimed 'around 400 pupils' would be withdrawn if his demands were not met.
But Mrs Hewitt-Clarkson said the boycott threat had not diminished her determination to continue to share equality messages with pupils and to celebrate difference and diversity. [Birmingham Mail] Read more
