Case against 'Trojan Horse' teachers dropped
EB News: 31/05/2017 - 11:08
Disciplinary proceedings against five senior teachers involved in the "Trojan Horse" inquiry have been dropped.
The case discontinued after the panel decided there was an “abuse of process”, as statements from previous inquiry were not disclosed by government lawyers.
The cases against Lindsey Clark, Monzoor Hussain, Hardeep Saini, Arshad Hussain and Razwan Faraz – who were former principals and senior teachers at schools in Park View Academy Trust – have therefore been dropped.
The trust was at the centre of allegations of a plot to radicalise pupils in several state schools in Birmingham.
Nearly two thirds of Initial Teacher Training providers believe that teachers are not currently prepared to meet the government’s ambition to raise the complexity threshold for SEND pupils entering mainstream schools.
England’s councils are warning of a "ticking time bomb" in the special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) system, with new data showing deficits that could bankrupt local authorities within three years.
The regulations have been set following a second consultation and detailed collaborative working with organisations and people across deaf and hearing communities.
The Education Committee has published a letter to the Secretary of State for Education asking for more detail about the Department for Education’s work on developing its SEND reforms.
