Parents have withdrawn kids from Birmingham’s Parkfield Community School over teachings about gay relationships
MUSLIM children were encouraged to chant "shame, shame, shame" at their gay assistant headteacher who introduced LGBT lessons during a protest this week.
Parents have withdrawn kids from Birmingham’s Parkfield Community School in protest at teachings about gay relationships.
They have claimed the No Outsiders inclusiveness and diversity programme, set up by gay assistant head Andrew Moffat, promoted his personal beliefs.
In the video the speaker said: "We have to make one thing very clear.
"This program is not just about telling people there are other families and other types of lifestyles exist it is actually aggressively promoting them.
"Giving a positive spin and telling people that it is okay or you to be Muslim and for you to be gay.
"Mr Moffatt. Shame, shame, shame."
The schoolchildren have been seen happily holding signs and chanting along with their parents.
The speaker went on: "I did not want to make this personal but Mr Moffatt has decided to reinterpret our religious scripture.
"Our beliefs are not here to be changed.
"This is an aggressive indoctrination that we are against. If it was not aggressive promotion then you would not have had all these parents come out on the street.
"As I have said to you this program is very toxic. Not only are we going to have it abolished at this school but in every school in Birmingham and every school in the country.
"That is going to happen from parents coming out and fighting for their children’s rights."
Ezra Stripe of charity Hidayah, which provides support for LGBT members of the Muslim community, said the opposition came from a sense of “misplaced Muslim pride”.
Police are also investigating reports of homophobic graffiti at the primary school.
West Midlands Police said the vandalism was reported by a governor there — where 99 per cent of pupils are Muslim.
The force was also reviewing video footage on social media to “establish whether any additional offences have taken place”.
The school is taking a break from the classes, which will resume after Easter.
