This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Petition Close down schools that breach the Equality Act.
There are schools that teach homophobia, sexism and racism under the guise of 'religion'. This is indoctrination and harassment, directly in breach of the Equality Act. It creates a hostile environment for children and attacks protected characteristics. This is breaking the law.

Any school that is breaking the Equality Act is an 'illegal school'. All schools need to be rigorously inspected. Downgrading them is not enough. They need to change or be closed. They are breaking the law.
