Majority of Brits support the wearing of religious symbols in schools suggests BBC Asian Network poll

 In a survey commissioned for BBC Asian Network’s award winning documentary strand ‘Asian Network Report’, we asked British respondents how they feel about the wearing of religious symbols by our children in state schools.

Our poll, commissioned as part of ‘Faith Week’ on Asian Network digital radio suggests that the British population supports the wearing of religious symbols in state schools – a key theme of today’s news agenda. 

(Shabina Begum challenged her schools decision not to allow her to wear a Jilbab, (a loose cloak worn over clothes) and presents Asian Network Report. )
