(Sky News) Reports of death threats against West Yorkshire school pupils who allegedly damaged a copy of the Koran are alarming, the home secretary has said.
Suella Braverman has spoken of her “deep concern” over the case and said it raises broader issues of free speech.
The home secretary has also promised to work with education officials on new guidance for schools to make clear that teachers “do not have to answer to self-appoint[ed] community activists.”
The Department for Education is already believed to be working with Kettlethorpe High School in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, after it suspended four students over the incident.
