An Islamic schools trust that was praised for promoting British values is allegedly facing watchdog questions after describing gay people as ‘evil’. The Charity Commission has launched a compliance case against the Abu Bakr Trust, which runs three schools and a nursery in Walsall, West Midlands, after staff used social media platforms to promote anti-gay views, it is claimed. While one of its schools was found to be inadequate at the last inspection, another was praised by Ofsted for promoting equality and British values, according to the Sunday Telegraph. Just months after the inspection last year the trust reportedly posted on Facebook that accepting homosexuality was part of a ‘fallen culture’, and shared a video saying ‘when homosexuality is praised and elevated you know the culture has fallen’.
