The Power of Nightmares (part three)

Six months ago I blogged about plans by Cornwall's Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education (SACRE) to advise teachers on how to deal with potential suicide bombers (or "violent religious extremists" to use the officials' own phrase.) I wrote a follow-up post which you can read here. There was to have been a summer training camp for 31 schools, at a cost of £3,500.

It didn't happen. I am told it's not been cancelled, the summer school has not been dropped, but there is no date for when the idea might be pursued again. My request for an interview with the Cornwall Council official behind the project has been turned down.
