Scotland: book ban
A Scripture Union book designed to help with the move to secondary school has been banned at a Scottish school after humanists complained it could ‘distress’ pupils, it was reported in late February.
The Christian Institute
Robert Douglas Memorial School in Scone, Perthshire, decided to stop handing out the book to primary school leavers after a complaint from one humanist parent. The move was described as ‘petty’ by the Revd David Robertson, the incoming Moderator of the Free Church of Scotland.
