🚨 Mum moment that says everything
Picked my boy up from school today.
Asked what he learned. The usual chat… then he mentions RE.
“What did you do today love?”
“The same as every time mummy… we learned about Islam. We did Salaah and the 5 pillars again.”
I asked him what he knows about Christianity.
He thought for a second and said: “Is that the one where you wash your hands, face and feet?”
🤦♀️
British kids in British schools learning about Islam on repeat… but barely anything about their own country’s Christian heritage — or any other faith for that matter.
I will be writing a formal email to the school about this lack of inclusion. If you want to be truly multicultural, you must include ALL faiths — not just one at the expense of everything else.
This isn’t balanced education. It’s cultural replacement in the classroom.
Parents, ask your kids what they’re learning in RE.
