The Department for Education will not publish new guidance on blasphemy in schools, despite the home secretary pledging to do so earlier this week.

Suella Braverman had said she would work with the DfE “to issue new guidance” after four children at a Wakefield school were suspended when a copy of the Quran was damaged.

Police recorded a hate incident, but said no crimes were committed. 

The boy who reportedly brought the Islamic text in has “high functioning” autism and received “death threats” over the incident, according to the BBC.
