Ofsted took action after YEC-ism was apparently taught within science at a Jewish independent school. According to the article: "The school’s policy states that ‘our curricula for Science, Geography and History will not reference evolution or prehistoric events that would de facto predate the creation of the world 5776 years ago’."

will not reference evolution or prehistoric events that would de facto predate the creation of the world 5776 years ago’."

De facto? Surely de lusiono.
It's interesting to speculate, though, whether Ham thinks of himself as promulgating an ultra-orthodox Jewish doctrine when he echos this attitude.
