Education Secretary praises faith schools during Yavneh visit
Education Secretary Nicky Morgan has praised the ‘outstanding’ role of British faith schools during a visit to Yavneh College.
Morgan said she was impressed by the Borehamwood secondary school’s combined faith-based education, centred around “fundamental British values”.
She added: “It is important young people are are taught and discuss fundamental British values, which a school like Yavneh absolutely subscribes too – as do most faith schools in this country. There are many outstanding faith schools of all different religions. They are doing a great job of educating our young people.”
