Katharine Birbalsingh – the head teacher of Michaela Community School.

Has to appear in the High Court regarding her stance of not allowing Muslim pupils to have a room in the school in which to pray. I think she is an inspirational Head and I agree wholeheartedly with her stance.

Like France, I think schools should keep religion firmly out of the curriculum. Teach about different ones (a light touch only) and other than that, nada. Let families take responsibility for such in their own time - at weekends or during the evenings.

Concentrate instead upon the 3R’s, kindness and inclusivity.
