Teachers have been urged to "actively disengage" from following rules that require schools to teach 'British values'.
Dr Robin Bevan, Head of Southend High School for Boys, told teachers at a conference in Liverpool that the rules are unnecessary, "ill-considered, ill-defined and counterproductive". Some Christian and Christian ethos schools claim to have been penalised by Ofsted as a result of the Government's recent 'British values' drive.
