A Christian chaplain was dismissed after refusing to chant ‘smash heteronormativity’ at inclusion training at a fee-paying boarding school, an employment tribunal was told.
Reverend Dr Bernard Randall, 49, from Long Eaton, Derbyshire, did not join in the ‘chant’ when urged to do so by the leader of Educate and Celebrate Dr Elly Barnes during an inset session at the independent Trent College, Long Eaton.
The evidence was heard during a tribunal, which came about after Rev Randall brought claims of harassment, discrimination, victimisation and unfair dismissal on the grounds of his Christian beliefs against his former employer.
