Take pupils out of classes, urges teacher

A teacher is behind a national campaign to challenge sex education in schools, which he claims can expose children to adultery, The Times can reveal.

Aziz Torofdar, 45, head of IT at Ralph Allen School, an academy in Bath, has launched Islamic relationships and sex education (RSE), which encourages parents to secure a place on the board of governors to influence teaching and to withdraw children from classes.

He has been touring the country giving talks on the issue and has spoken to parents at mosques and schools in Birmingham, Bristol, London and Essex.

Mr Torofdar’s campaign comes amid a growing row in Birmingham, where parents have been protesting outside Anderton Park Primary School which was forced to shut early yesterday. [The Times (£)] Read more
