Headteacher Christina Wilkinson, of St. Andrew’s Church of England school in Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire, caused a stir on social media recently when she tweeted: “Evolution is not a fact. That’s why it’s called a theory!1 There’s more evidence that the Bible is true.”2 She was responding to another headteacher, Tom Sherrington from London, who was encouraging teachers to hold to science when it comes to teaching the origin of life.
