We, too, have a son in Year 7 at Dorothy Stringer School. We have been particularly impressed with the style and content of religious education lessons at the school.
Incidentally, the lessons on Stonehenge form part of this subject's syllabus, not history, as stated in The Argus headline.
As non-Christians, we welcome the use of BCE and CE since they do not imply an adherence to any particular faith. If Philip Long, who protested about the term being introduced at his son's school, truly understands the meaning of a multi-ethnic society, as he claims to, how can he describe BC and AD as "universally accepted" and take exception to the use of more neutral terms?
