Poole Church School Stands By Request To Skip 'KPop Demon Hunters' Songs

An updated letter frames the measure as upholding a Christian ethos to respect families uneasy with demon references.

Overview

  • Lilliput Church of England Infant School in Poole asked parents to discourage pupils from singing songs from the film on school premises.
  • Acting head Lloyd Allington said mentions of demons can conflict with beliefs held by some Christian families.
  • Following feedback, an updated letter acknowledged themes like teamwork and kindness but kept the request in place.
  • Some parents criticised the move as unnecessary, noting children perform the songs in harmless after‑school activities.
  • The school says this does not affect what families choose at home, and the film remains a major hit with about 236 million Netflix streams since June.
