A Christian student has been removed from a university social work course after he made comments on his personal Facebook page in support of biblical teaching on marriage and sexual ethics. Following a 'Fitness to Practice Committee' hearing at Sheffield University, second year Masters student Felix Ngole, 38, was ‘excluded from further study on a programme leading to a professional qualification’ and is ‘no longer recognised as a University student.’ Mr Ngole was told that the committee believed that by posting his comments on Facebook, he may have caused offence to some individuals and had transgressed boundaries which are not deemed appropriate for someone entering the profession. His opinions would have an effect on his ‘ability to carry out a role as a social worker,’ the committee said. Mr Ngole is appealing the decision and is being supported by the Christian Legal Centre.
