[Leaflets available at a Muslim school
warn against adopting British customs
and watching TV - and say women
should not go to work.
A private Muslim school in Yorkshire
is promoting an extreme form of Islam,
claiming that Jews are engaged
in a global conspiracy to take
over the world and that adopting
British customs is forbidden.
The Islamic Tarbiyah Academy
in Dewsbury teaches 140 primary school
children in an after-school madrasa
and runs full-time classes
for over-16s and adults.
Mufti Zubair Dudha, the centre's
founder and head, is a respected
cleric from the orthodox Deobandi
sect which is thought to control half
of all mosques and madrasas in the UK.]


This is so wrong.

Close it down.

[Josy]

Needs closing.

[Ammi]

....hmmmm, not great but they're also condemning terrorism and promoting non-violence it says so I would like to know more because this might just be 'slanted media propaganda' as well....

'Tis but one of many throughout the UK, and yet another nail in the coffin of all those who claim that ALL Muslims desire to INTEGRATE.

I remember being berated for writing about this very problem a long time ago.

It does, indeed, need closing, but more than that; the principals need banning from ever being associated with any type of learning institution again - 'Private' or otherwise.

How do they ever procreate then if the woman can't go to work?

But seriously I'm fed up of Religious extremists trying to run Secular Countries and telling us how we should live our lives, especially one that's going against every other Religion, Agnostic, and Atheist out there.

Keep it open, then we can track the people that send their children to such schools and later track the children themselves. At least we know what they are up to now, rather than it being hidden in secrecy

[Crimson Dynamo]

Its good that this place has been exposed and no doubt it will now have to close its doors. The problem is, closing down this sort of place doesn't rid us of the problem because they just become more secretive and move more underground.

I wish they would just ban all religious schools. Whilst they can't do this in adult colleges, they can stop children attending radicalised main stream schools.

[Kizzy]

I'd say schools being changed to academies will be a godsend for those who have an ulterior motive too.

Wouldn't banning all religious school be discrimination?

A similar story's in the Independent today.

'A London council’s education authority destroyed documents showing children were being educated in illegal faith schools at the request of religious institutions, The Independent can reveal.

The Department for Education has been aware of the apparent cover-up since 2010 but does not appear to have taken any steps to act against the destruction of these records.

An investigation by The Independent also found that more than 1,000 children are missing from schools in London and are at risk of abuse in illegal faith schools. The schools are ultra-Orthodox Jewish faith schools at which boys are placed from the age of 13, and where they receive no education beyond studying religious texts. A number of pupils leave school with little or no ability to speak English, and few – if any – qualifications or skills which equip them to work, or live independently.'

Faith based schools shouldn't be a thing, religion should be taught in RE in a balanced impartial matter. Religion should never form the backbone of an education facility.

[JoshBB]

This is one of the reasons I am opposed to faith schools tbh, this kind of old-fashioned thining could not be promoted in a mixed environment without significant complaints.

I really like the sound of this idea, it might stop some of the prejudice that's going on between each others Religions because they'll be mixing with each other from such a young age.

I personally believe that there shouldn't even be an RE lesson at School.

Religion is something that's personal to the individual and should be practiced in the person's free time, wasting an hour or more on something so trivial is just bizarre to me when we could have that time dedicated to something that's done less but is more important to learn in life like History, Geography, Technology etc.

My other issue with RE is that whoever's teaching it is never going to be impartial.

RE as a subject couldn't be less trivial.

In most cases it's not like going to church (or any other place of worship) and being taught to believe the earth is flat and bearded men live on clouds etc fgs. It's a full education on the history and culture from around the world. Very valid education.

It's something that can be picked up on in day to day life, I know that I've learned more about Religions in my own spare time than I ever did when I was at School.
