This story tallies with verbal reports that have come from teachers and headteachers in Brum for some time. This could only happen because of the freedoms of the academy system - freedoms from the regulation, scrutiny, accountability and legal safeguards that are necessary foundation for a safe, equal and socially-just state education system. Salafist Muslims are not the only groups seeking to exploit the de-regulated academy and free-school sector for their own ends. Creationists, evangelical Christians, media moguls, individual fat-cats and hedge-fund profiteers are all right in there too. Of course this should be a wake-up call to proponents of the academy programme, but then the regular-as-clockwork expenses and financial mis-management scandals, satellite-sites opening for segregation of travellers and gypsies, the abysmal record of academy chains such as E-ACT and all the many other academy and free-school catastrophes and scandals should have been also. birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/jihadist-plot-take-over-birmingham-6782881
