"AHEd has sent this letter to the Chief Executive of the NSPCC and its Child Protection Policy Advisor Vijay Patel.

Dear Sir,
AHEd has received a number of member complaints concerning the outrageous comments of Mr. Vijay Patel reported in the Independent newspaper today which we believe abuse the memory of a murdered child for political ends to falsely conflate her death with a minority group and to express a causal link between home educators and child abuse.
Mr Patel is quoted: "Some people use home education to hide. Look at the Victoria Climbié case.”
We object in the strongest terms possible to these comments..."
