Demonstration utanför Batley Grammar School. Skärmdumpsvideo.

Arga föräldrar demonstrerar vid Batley Grammar School i West Yorkshire efter att en lärare påstås ha visat stötande teckningar av Muhammad. Skolan ligger nu platt.

Skolans början skjöts upp på grund av demonstrationen. Demonstranterna uppmuntrades att dyka upp utanför skolan via sociala medier, skriver ExaminerLive. De kräver nu att läraren tappar sitt jobb. Rektorn lägger sig platt.

In an email sent to parents headteacher Gary Kibble apologised for the «inappropriate» resource used in the lesson.

It reads: «The school would like to thank the parents who contacted us on March 22 highlighting concerns with a resource used in an RS lesson that day.

«Upon investigation, it was clear that the resource used in the lesson was completely inappropriate and had the capacity to cause great offence to members of our school community for which we would like to offer a sincere and full apology.»

Skolan beskriver sig själv enligt följande på hemsidan.

We are a caring school of 960 pupils, with a real family atmosphere and a commitment to giving every boy and girl the individual attention they need to thrive. Our dedicated staff work closely with pupils and parents to maintain the highest quality education in a lively, happy environment which breeds success.
