A school play has been referred to a Government Minister after an MP complained it was “propaganda”.
Philip Davies wrote to the Education Secretary after reading about a production on climate change that was touring schools in Yorkshire and Lancashire.
Michael Gove replied, agreeing there was no place for propaganda and promising to “slim down” the national curriculum.
Whether climate change should be taught in schools is under debate as the Government looks to slash the size of the curriculum.
Its advisor has previously said lessons should stick to core scientific principles and not include global warming.
But this has led to fears that science teaching is being “politicised” and could lose its relevance to modern life.
