There are 6,000 children trapped in illegal schools in England – many hidden behind claims of ‘part-time’ education. In reality, they’re confined to cramped rooms, forced to study scripture for hours each day. Donate today to stop this.

NOW let's watch the press hold other politicians to these standards.
Yeah. That doesn’t infuse the book. It’s not something you would be aware of from reading the book alone.

Humanist Society Scotland For an ethical future Preaching is not Teaching Insights into religious observance in non-denominational schools
Collective worship is not education. It's religious observance.
Yet in Scotland (and across the UK), state schools are legally required to lead pupils in acts of worship. So many parents are totally unaware. New report by @humanistsociety.bsky.social goes in-depth 👇
#HolidayRead another great holiday read. Captivated from page one.

Cracking holiday read. A catholic priest has a terrible secret. He doesn’t believe in God. A very pleasing book from beginning to its satisfying end. Quite a few laugh out loud moments. #BookSky

Books just find me. Last week I read an interview with Marianne Brown & that’s how I ended up spending snatched moments reading ‘The Shetland Way’.
Today, I will mostly be reading Agnes’s Callard’s book - The Case for a Philosophical Life.
