The BBC Is Reporting West Yorkshire head teacher has banned books containing stories about pigs from the classroom in case they offend Muslim children.
The literature has been removed from classes for under-sevens at Park Road Junior Infant and Nursery School in Batley.
Sixty per cent of the school’s pupils are of Pakistani or Indian origin and 99% of these pupils are Muslims.
“The books remain in the school library and there is nothing to stop our younger children having stories such as ‘The Three Little Pigs’ in small groups.”
