TAKE ACTION! ACADEMIES BILL!
Dear Supporter,
The Academies Bill, which will radically reshape the schools system, enters the Commons next week. This is the first time MPs will have the chance to scrutinize the Bill in detail.
We need your help to ensure that our serious concerns related to ‘faith schools’ are addressed by the Government.
Take Action Now-
email your MP.
The Academies Bill is a massive de-regulation of public education which could significantly increase the power and influence of religious groups in our schools. It risks permanently entrenching religious segregation in our education system through irreversible changes which will permit wide discrimination in admissions and employment.
By “freeing” religious Academies from the national curriculum the Bill also risks exposing children to extreme religious views, including creationism.
Please write to your MP today and ask them to raise these concerns in Parliament on your behalf. You can use our automated email system to contact your MP right now – it will only take a couple of minutes.
Before you send your email to your MP, you’ll have the opportunity to read more on our concerns about the Bill. For a more detailed analysis, please read our Parliamentary Briefing for MPs.
The Bill is being rushed through Parliament, so it’s important we act quickly. Please take action today if you can.
Thank you for your support.
If you know anyone else who may be interested in taking this action, please feel free to forward this email to them!
Thank you!
