A head teachers’ union revealed in early March that it is supporting members with a ‘variety of apparent Trojan Horse issues.’*
Head teacher Trish O’Donnell, of Clarksfield Primary School, emailed Oldham council in December, saying that she had ‘very strong reasons to believe that … a “Trojan Horse” agenda [is] being played out.’ She claimed that she had been subjected to a campaign involving ‘death threats’, ‘threats to blow up her car’, and ‘aggressive verbal abuse’.
A confidential report into the allegations says that the head teacher had even been physically attacked by one parent.
