A Christian student was removed from a university Social Work course at the end of February after he made comments on his personal Facebook page in support of biblical teaching on marriage and sexual ethics.

Following a ‘Fitness to Practice Committee’ hearing at Sheffield University, second year Masters student Felix Ngole, 38, has been told that he has been ‘excluded from further study on a programme leading to a professional qualification’ and is ‘no longer recognised as a University student’.

Mr Ngole was told that, by posting his comments on Facebook, the Committee believed that he ‘may have caused offence to some individuals’ and had ‘transgressed boundaries which are not deemed appropriate for someone entering the Social Work profession.’
