A cleric who promoted “offensive” and “inappropriate” views about women and gay people has been banned from running schools.

The DfE announced today that Waheed Alam, also known as Abu Khadeejah, had been handed a prohibition notice. It prevents him from being involved in the running of any private school or from being a governor of a state school.

Alam was chair of directors of Redstone Educational Services Ltd, which owns and runs Redstone Educational Academy, a private school in Birmingham. Alam was previously chair of the governing body.
