Britain's 'strictest headmistress' speaks out at pro-freedom conference

Katharine Birbalsingh, described as 'Britain's strictest headmistress', recently spoke to Rebel News UK's Sammy Woodhouse at the pro-freedom Alliance for Responsible Citizenship conference in London.

A prominent British teacher and advocate for education reform, Katharine Birbalsingh is the founder and headteacher of Michaela Community School, a free school established in 2014 in Wembley Park, London.

Known for her bold and often controversial views on education, she has become a leading voice in the movement for change within the UK’s schooling system.

During my time at the ARC conference in London last week, a three-day event hosted by Jordan Peterson, which brought together 4,000 freedom-minded politicians, thinkers, and organizations, I had the opportunity to speak with her.

“We also believe in our children being British, and we have a British flag outside and we sing ‘God Save the King’,” she explained.

Despite her reputation, I found Birbalsingh to be pragmatic and grounded in her approach. I raised the topic of safety in schools, particularly in light of the recent tragic murder of a schoolboy in Sheffield. Here’s what she had to say.

    Fools hate tradition. That’s what leftists are. They’re like the idiot lumberjack sawing off the branch he’s sitting on. Time-tested ideas work the best. So learn from others’ misery and choose life that you and your children will live.
