King’s College London is believed to be examining changes it could make to a counterterrorism training course after facing allegations that it was biased.

Academics have denied that the three-day training was politically biased, after complaints from Anna Stanley, a former Foreign Office official, who attended the course last year and claimed it had amounted to indoctrination.

A source told The Times that senior figures at the college were looking at the complaints to establish their credibility. They said: “The very high reputation King’s College has earned for counterterrorism-related studies needs to be protected.

“Steps are being taken to ensure, first of all, whether these complaints were correctly made or not.
