A Christian teacher in Wales who voiced his beliefs about traditional marriage during a staff training event has been sacked.
Teacher Ben Dybowski was dismissed even though he was told it was a ‘safe space’ and was encouraged to speak freely.
The incident happened during a question and answer session at The Bishop of Llandaff Church in Wales School in Cardiff.
Dybowski asked if his beliefs – that marriage is between a man and a woman and that life begins at conception – were considered discriminatory.
He lost his job the very next day. Dybowski called his dismissal an attack on Christianity and ‘an affront to freedom of speech and freedom of thought’.
Can Christians still be school teachers?
Not a month seems to go by without a high-profile story in the news about a Christian teacher facing difficulties because of their beliefs
