'Something must change now after my daughter, 12, was embarrassed by her school'
Courtney Wright was removed from the Culture Celebration Day at Bilton School in Rugby, Warwickshire "without saying a single word," a move which has outraged dad Stuart Field A furious dad has demanded "something must change" as his 12-year-old daughter was taken out of a diversity class after wearing a Union Flag dress. Stuart Field, 47, believes "people have had enough about being told what they can and can't do" after the school's decision to put Courtney Wright into isolation upset the family and the wider community. Although Bilton School in Rugby, Warwickshire, has since apologised, a spokesperson for Keir Starmer has insisted "being British is something to be celebrated." Pupils with St George's flags and Welsh flags were also turned away from the school gates, Mr Field added. In a new video, the dad said: "What happened on Friday should not happen to any child in the UK. It has caused a lot of upset in the UK, I think people have had enough about being told what they can and can't do when they are being proud to celebrate their own culture and own history. I don't think this is going to end anytime soon, unless something changes." Mr Field, who works in marine restoration, did not state what exactly he feels needs to change. However, he stressed he is confident the backlash the school has faced reflects fury across society at the issue. The school, rated as Good by Ofsted, had billed the day as a opportunity for pupils to wear attire reflecting their nationality or family heritage, rather than a school uniform. Not long after Courtney arrived in the Spice Girls-esque dress, the youngster was booted out classes "without saying a single word" and was not allowed to make her inclusive speech about the importance to her of being British, which referenced drinking tea, fish and chips and values of fairness and politeness. "Courtney was so embarrassed and couldn't understand what she'd done wrong. She should not be made to feel embarrassed about being British. She shouldn't be punished for celebrating being British culture and history - nobody else I've spoken to can quite get their heads around it," dad-of-five Stuart, from Coventry, West Midlands, said. "Somebody at the school has politicised a Union Jack dress even though that was clearly not Courtney's intent. Courtney didn't do anything to be political. It's about being British, the Spice Girls and even the freedom of being able to wear a dress. This was her interpretation of British culture and what it means to her." A statement issued on behalf of the school by the Stowe Valley Multi Academy Trust said: "On Friday 11th July, an incident occurred during our Culture Celebration Day that caused considerable upset to one of our pupils, her family, and members of the wider community. "We deeply regret the distress this has caused and offer our sincere and unreserved apologies. We have since spoken directly with the pupil and her family to listen to their concerns and reflect on how this could have been handled better. "We are committed to learning from this experience and ensuring that every student feels recognised and supported when expressing pride in their heritage." The statement, which said the school was proud of the diversity of its students and the rich heritage they bring to the community, added: "As a school, we are reviewing our policies and strengthening staff training to ensure our practices reflect our values of inclusion, respect, and understanding for all. We are committed to fostering an environment where every pupil feels respected, valued, and included."

Furious Love Islanders slam Shakira as she sends couple home in shock dumping decision
A leaked voicenote before the episode revealed one star's savage Love Island plan VILLA BETRAYAL Furious Love Islanders slam Shakira as she sends couple home in shock dumping decision Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island viewers were left reeling tonight after Shakira and Ty brutally sent Tommy and Lucy packing despite them being seen as one of the villa's strongest couples. In a savage twist, Andrada and Ben were first booted from the island last night after being voted least compatible. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 8 Fans said Emma and Conor were the least compatible couple Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 8 But Lucy and Tommy were sent home despite their romantic connection 8 Lauren and Harrison survived the chop Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 8 Shakira and Conor have been cracking on Credit: ITV Chaos erupted when it was revealed that three more couples were at risk, and Shakira and Ty — voted most compatible — held the power to dump another duo. Left dangling by a thread were Tommy and Lucy, Conor and Emma, and Lauren and Harrison. Shakira chose to save Conor after he revealed he had feelings for her - and said she felt the same. She told Ty: "Harrison's my best mate obviously, with Conor we've been exploring a connection. "At the end of the day I'm not going to be in this position and not save the people I've got the best connections with." When the result was revealed, Helena snapped: "It's not right." But Shakira stood her ground, coolly responding: 'I did what I wanted to do,' before joking, 'I'm going back to public enemy number one.' Meanwhile, Toni wasn't hiding her feelings after witnessing Lauren and Harrison kiss right in front of her. 'That's why I wanted them gone,' she fumed. Love Island rocked by leaked voice note that 'exposes' Casa girl's game plan Harrison had tried to kiss Toni on the terrace days ago, but slept with Lauren in bed last night. It comes after The Sun revealed a leaked voice note appearing to show Lucy's game plan to win Love Island by coupling up with Tommy. The 37-second recording, which Love Island fans claimed was the voice of Lucy Quinn, laid bare a plot to couple with popular Tommy as a surefire way to make the final. Tommy was previously coupled up with Irish beauty Megan Forte Clarke who was axed after her love triangle with Conor. Her betrayal led her to be voted one of the three least popular girls by the public. He was then in a couple with Welsh beauty Emily, but last week, Lucy walked into the main villa holding hands with smitten Tommy, who dumped Emily to be with her. In the most dramatic moment of the recoupling, Emily was left shell-shocked having stayed loyal to Tommy and given a heartfelt speech in which she said she couldn't wait to see him. 8 Shakira and Ty were voted the most compatible and were given the power to send one couple home Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 8 Emily was dumped from the villa after Tommy recoupled with Lucy in Casa Amor Credit: Eroteme 8 Tommy returned from Casa Amor with Lucy Credit: Eroteme

Stevie Wonder clears up bizarre rumour that he's not really blind
Stevie Wonder has addressed the bizarre rumors floating around about his blindness, describing his sight issues as a 'blessing'. The 75-year-old opened up about his health while performing in Cardiff last week, during his Love, Light and Song tour – ahead of his electrifying stint at London's BST Hyde Park on Saturday. Appearing on stage in the Welsh capital, the Isn't She Lovely singer took a moment to speak out against claims that he can actually see. 'I must say to all of you, something that I was thinking, 'When did I want to let the world know this?' But I wanted to say it right now,' he began in footage making the sounds on social media. 'You know there have been rumors about me seeing and all that,' he continued, to laughter from the crowd. 'But seriously, you know the truth. 'The truth is, shortly after my birth, I became blind. Now, that was a blessing because it has allowed me to see the world in the vision of truth, of sight. See people in the spirit of them, not how they look. 'Not what color they are, but what color is their spirit?' Stevie was born premature and went blind shortly after – he was diagnosed with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) at six weeks old, due to too much oxygen in his incubator. According to the Mayo Clinic, this occurs when blood vessels 'swell and grow too much in the light-sensing tissue at the back of the eye'. The overgrown vessels can sometimes slowly scar the retina and pull it out of place, causing retinal detachment, which can 'harm vision and cause blindness'. He found his passion for music at an early age and began releasing albums in the 60s, and went on to become one of the best-selling artists in history – thanks to hits including Superstition, Part-Time Lover, I Just Called To Say I Love You and Signed, Sealed, Delivered among many others. Last year, he made a rare comment about his childhood while recording the Wonder of Stevie audiobook series with Wesley Morris and President Barack Obama. 'I was born. Shortly after that, I'm blind,' he said at the time. 'My mother went through the different things, and so my experience with that was deep.' He recalled hearing his mom cry 'every night', until he told her: 'Mama, you shouldn't cry, you're making my head hurt. 'And I said, 'Maybe God has something for me that's bigger than all this'. 'History proved that true.' Stevie has faced scrutiny over his sight many times over the years, with his fellow celebrities making light of the speculation. Appearing on the Kelly Clarkson Show in 2019, Lionel Richie joked: 'I'm going to tell you something – I've been spending my whole life with him thinking, 'He can see, I know he can see.' 'I went to his house. He says, 'Wanna hear a new song? I've got it in the car. Come on, go with me.'' He shared that his pal sat in the driver's seat, 'cranked the car up, put the tape in … and starts driving back down the driveway'. 'I screamed, 'Stevie! What are you doing?' And he said, 'Ah, got you, didn't I?'' More Trending In 2016, Anthony Anderson also unpacked his friendship with Stevie during an appearance on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Questioned on whether he once challenged Stevie to a charity basketball game, the Blackish actor quipped: 'I did… What y'all don't know is, Stevie can see. It's just an act. 'I'm telling you, have him on the show! Put stuff in his way, I bet you he'll step over it.' Got a story?
