Birmingham: Trojan horse?

BBC News online

An employment tribunal, called to investigate claims that four teaching assistants were unfairly dismissed from one Birmingham school, was adjourned on March 10 pending further investigations by the local council after allegations of a ‘Muslim takeover’ at schools in Birmingham were made in a letter shown to the council.

The letter gives details of ‘Operation Trojan Horse’, an alleged plot to put Muslims into leadership in schools and introduce a more Islamic flavour to the curriculum.
