On November 7, 2003 the BBC News reported, "Education officers have thrown out plans to open a Sikh primary school for children in Berkshire. The £6m school in Slough would have been only the second primary in England dedicated to the faith. Slough Borough Council schools committee voted against the project to build the school next to St. Ethelbert's Catholic Primary School in Wellington Street...Some parents opposed the plan, fearing it would force at least two non-religious schools to close because they would not be left with enough pupils. They were also concerned that a single-faith school might cause racial tensions, although one in every five of its pupils would have come from other backgrounds."
