What do you think?

A primary school in Hull has been criticised for cancelling a Christmas sight-seeing trip to London for their Year 5 pupils because of the threat of terrorist activity.  It's the old argument - on the one hand by doing this we are playing into the terrorists' hands, doing exactly what they want us to do. On the other hand, the safety of the children must be paramount - and indeed several parents had already withdrawn their children from the trip before the decision was taken.  Clearly the school had to put the safety of the children first - it seems that criticism has mainly come from those not directly connected to the school.
