Teaching bans lifted for two ‘Trojan Horse’ school staff
Two teachers that were banned from teaching following the ’Trojan Horse’ inquiry have had the ban lifted.
Inamulhaq Anwar and Akeel Ahmed were banned from teaching in February but a High Court judge has now ruled they were treated unfairly.
The men had appealed the bans which were originally imposed by the NCTL, the teaching professional standards body and an executive agency of the Department for Education (DfE), earlier this year.
At a hearing on February 19 this year, the NCTL panel concluded that both men had agreed with others to the inclusion of "an undue amount of religious influence in pupils' education" at Park View Academy in Alum Rock in Birmingham.
But giving his ruling in Birmingham, Mr Justice Stephen Phillips voiced "considerable doubt" about the fairness of the original hearing.
The ‘Trojan Horse’ inquiry centred around allegations which claimed there was a plot by Islamist hard-liners to take control of several Birmingham schools.
