Church of England to tackle homophobic bullying in Anglican schools

The Church of England and gay rights group Stonewall are to work together in a bid to tackle homophobic bullying in Church schools.

It's understood the Archbishop of Canterbury the Most Rev Justin Welby was behind the idea.

Meanwhile, new figures have revealed Church schools now take as many pupils from poor backgrounds and ethnic minorities as the national average. 

The Bishop of Oxford, the Rt Revd John Pritchard is Chair of the Church of England's Board of Education, he told the News Hour the Church is reflecting society. 

A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
