Two former pupils of the Michaela School in Brent say a "prayer ban" made being Muslim "seem toxic" and "evil".

The school introduced the policy in March 2023 stopping "prayer rituals" - something it's being challenged in the High Court over.

The school's leader, former government social mobility tsar Katharine Birbalsingh, did not respond for comment but Ms Birbalsingh previously said the school was a "happy and respectful" place. She added that Muslim students have had "positive experiences" at the school.

麻豆社 London's Alpa Patel has been telling Eddie Nestor what the students have said.
