An Eastbourne independent school headmaster complained in mid-October about ‘stifling’ health and safety rules and red tape that oblige him to vet, among others, a visiting Church of England bishop for extremism.
He felt that to comply with government anti-terrorism measures, he had to ask respected senior clergy for advance texts of the sermons they were due to preach at the school. He is also unhappy about other administrative burdens placed on the school by the Prevent strategy.
