A deputy head teacher who branded gay people as 'animals' has failed in a bid to win his job back at a school which was embroiled in the Trojan horse scandal. Razwan Faraz, 38, claimed his dismissal was a result of religious discrimination after he lost his job at Nansen Primary School in 2015. He was one of five teachers suspended after investigators claimed to find evidence of a conspiracy to impose Islamic teachings at schools in Birmingham.
The group tried to introduce 'an intolerant and aggressive Islamic ethos' via a 'brotherhood' WhatsApp group, in which Mr Faraz made homophobic remarks. However the five men were cleared of a plot to infiltrate secular state schools after a disciplinary panel hearing collapsed due to the prosecution withholding evidence.
