UK govt accuses Muslim group of trying to impose Islam in schools

[JayAtl]

LONDON: Conservative Muslim school leaders in Britain’s second biggest city of Birmingham conducted an “organised campaign” to impose faith-based ideology on their pupils, Education Secretary Michael Gove said on Monday.

Clashes between Muslim governors and non-Muslim senior staff had led to a “culture of fear and intimidation” in which some teachers felt forced to leave their jobs, leaving those remaining free to impose a narrow curriculum, the minister said.

Gove was reporting the findings of two official investigations into allegations of an Islamist plot to take over the leadership of state-funded schools in Birmingham with the intention of imposing a religious agenda.

The allegations renewed concerns about the risk to young people in Britain of Islamic extremism, and exposed a rift at the heart of the government about how to tackle religious radicalism.

However, some community leaders in Birmingham, a former industrial centre which has one of Britain’s largest Muslim communities, said the row was baseless and driven by Islamophobia.

Inspections by Ofsted, the schools watchdog, concluded that five schools were providing an “inadequate” standard of education due to failings that the chief inspector of schools, Michael Wilshaw, said were “deeply worrying”.

“Ofsted states that head teachers reported an organised campaign to target schools in order to alter their character and ethos, with a culture of fear and intimidation,” Gove told the House of Commons.

“Ofsted concluded that governors are trying to impose and promote a narrow, faith-based ideology in what are non-faith schools, specifically by narrowing the curriculum, manipulating staff appointments, and in using school funds inappropriately.”

A separate report by the Education Funding Agency, a branch of the education ministry, revealed that at one school Azan was broadcast across the playground.

Shooting on one's own foot is the right phrase here!

 

[cyphercide]

Disgusting. One feels for English kids who are not even being protected by their own government.

 

[SirHatesALot]

British govt is full of idiots,this seems to be going on unchecked.

every member of such muslim groups should be deported to where they come from. They can have it in their caves.

Every secular country in the world has the duty to kill off such nonsense and backward stupidity.

It can create nothing but terrorists.

hahahahahha...Birmingham got trolled Trojan Horse: Birmingham academy spent £50,000 on trip to Saudi Arabia using travel firm linked to school director - Birmingham Mail

stupid people should not be allowed to govern a school or any school...

 

[Azizam]

Disgusting. One feels for English kids who are not even being protected by their own government.

Those are predominantly minority areas where no English lives. Maybe there's little resistance in those areas, that could be the reason why it took so much time for these incidents to get reported.

The problem is Islamist are allowed to do whatever in the name of freedom of expression. Even the speaker's corner of Hyde Park is infiltrated by Islamists idiots and then some Hindu idiots are arguing with them.

Pakistanis wil disagree with you, there is a large population of radicalized muslims in UK.

those bastard doesn't know their place surely

 

[farhan_9909]

Now what sort of invasion is this?

 

[indianwhistleblower]

hello guys!

 

[JohnyD]

Muslims should spare Europe OR Europe should ban Muslims in their world...Enough of these extremist people......I guess they have enough to do in Asia and Africa...pls spare rest of the world!

That will be two different concepts.

If those are moderate muslims, whether they are pakistani or not, it won't matter since moderate muslims will not propose such stupid ideas against normal education.

However, for radicalized muslims, well, I do not give a damn for their nationalities. They are the threat to the common interest of human beings. Here I mean they are threat to the human race, to everyone in the world. They not only kill non-muslims but also kill muslims as well. They destroy without differentiation.

When they become sucide bombers, they can be any cities in the world. That is why the whole world need work together to get rid of them. It won't be easy but it definitely can be done.

Pakistanis wil disagree with you, there is a large population of radicalized muslims in UK.

For those muslims who want to integrate, I think we still need welcome them.

I still believe there are a lot of muslims in the west who do not give a damn about jihad or taliban, or sharia laws. At least, in China, there are lot of muslims who are quite moderate.
