Eton College reported teacher they sacked over ‘male superiority’ lecture to anti-TERRORISM Prevent programme
by Jack Newman, Mailonline:
English tutor Will Knowland was dismissed for ‘gender roles’ YouTube lecture.
Eton College reported its dismissed Master to the anti-terrorism Prevent programme for allegedly advocating male supremacy and the glorification of violence.
The elite £42,500-a-year public school reported their concerns to their local authority over teacher Will Knowland’s lecture.
School chiefs dismissed Mr Knowland after he refused to take down an online lecture tackling radical feminism and the concept of ‘toxic masculinity’ from his personal YouTube channel.
The move sparked outrage among students who launched a petition for Mr Knowland’s reinstatement, plunging the private school – which is closed due to a coronavirus outbreak – into chaos.
Under-fire headmaster Mr Henderson, known as ‘Trendy Hendy’ has been accused of suppressing free speech and implementing a progressive ‘woke’ agenda.
It has now been revealed that the school contacted the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead’s Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO) over the contents of Mr Knowland’s discussion.
The school claimed the lecture advocated male superiority and female inferiority, glorified violence and promoted far-right extremism, according to The Telegraph.
