Throwback to 22nd June where we celebrated our @TeachingAwards So proud of our community receiving national recognition...if we can anyone can! Thank you to the staff, parents and children that make us what we are @CHCC_Official

Some absolutely revolting people on this app, exploiting the worst vices of human nature for status and glory, or political impact. @MuftiPatel is one of the most capable and experienced people in the English system. His schools are fantastic. And none of this ghastly post is true. Report this.

🔦Spotlight on...Hamid Patel! Hamid Patel has helped raise educational standards and improve outcomes for thousands of pupils, particularly in areas of social disadvantage.

Hard to believe the pretend Shadow Home Secretary didn’t spot this was a joke.

Our Year 7s have been visiting @dmuleicester to experience University life. They toured the campus, visited accommodation, took part in glow in the dark badminton & asked questions. Two students said "I didn't know anything about university before but now I'm definitely going!"

As a Christian who has lived in the Middle East for many centuries of accumulated history, I can say this clearly: the problem is not Islam. Islam, like Christianity, Judaism, or any other religion, emerges from a cultural and social structure. It is interpreted, practiced, and lived differently depending on the era, the level of education, the economic conditions, and the historical trajectory of each society. Religions are not static blocks; they evolve with societies. It is therefore intellectually dishonest to claim, in absolute terms, that Islam itself is the problem. First, Islam is not one single reality. There are multiple Islamic sects, diverse peoples, radically different cultures, and very different political experiences. Indonesian Islam is not Saudi Islam; Moroccan Islam is not Iranian Islam; Bosnian Islam is not Afghan Islam. To reduce all of this complexity to one label called Islam is not analysis، it is simplification bordering on propaganda. The real problem is far more complex and multidimensional. The first major rupture occurred during the Cold War, when the Soviet Union successfully penetrated Arab political structures under the banner of Palestine. This produced a form of leftist Arab nationalism, deeply hostile to Western civilization and ideologically mobilized against the United States. Over time, many of these movements failed politically and economically, and gradually recycled themselves into what can be described as Islamized leftism retaining the same anti-Western ideology, but now dressed in religious language. The second phenomenon is demographic and sociological. Due to declining birth rates, Western countries imported large numbers of Muslim migrant workers. Most came from rural areas or impoverished urban neighborhoods, often without education or cultural capital. These populations were neither fully anchored in their societies of origin nor successfully integrated into Western societies. This failure cannot be reduced to religious blame alone, it is the result of economic policy, urban segregation, and integration failure. This complexity was understood early on. Hassan II, the late King of Morocco, explicitly warned France against mass naturalization of Moroccan migrants and expressed serious reservations about the long-term consequences. His concern was not religious, it was sociological and structural. No serious thinker judges a religion based on isolated incidents, or based on periods of decline or prosperity. History shows clearly that wealthy and stable states integrate diversity far more easily than poor and fractured ones. Poverty radicalizes; prosperity pacifies. Finally, there is the most dangerous illusion of all: the idea of turning global tensions into religious wars. By what rational logic should humanity drag the planet into civilizational or religious conflict? This is not only immoral, it is strategically suicidal. Anyone advocating such ideas lacks historical depth and strategic vision. The conclusion is simple: Religious hatred is not analysis. Generalization is not intelligence. And blaming Islam as a whole is neither accurate nor useful. What we are facing is a crisis of failed states, ideological manipulation, economic exclusion, and strategic irresponsibility, not a war of religions. Those who truly care about peace must stop feeding fear, and start addressing reality.

This morning we celebrated our students who are on track for #Success Day in July. They all enjoyed a treat from Baker Street Cakes. We hope this gives them the motivation to keep up the good work next term!

@newstart_2024 Tough love

Parents: the kindest thing you can do for your kids might feel like the hardest. Dr. Daniel Amen says we’re accidentally raising mentally fragile children by rescuing them too often. When we rush forgotten homework or jackets to school, we quietly steal their chance to grow strong. His rule: • Forget lunch? Natural consequence. • “I’m bored”? → “I wonder what you’ll come up with 😊” …and say nothing more. Mental toughness isn’t built by comfort — it’s built by solving problems on their own. This 51-second clip changed how thousands of parents think. Will it change yours? Drop your favorite “let them learn” moment below — I read every reply
