Islamic fundamentalism promoted on websites at some Muslim schools in the UK, think tank finds - Telegraph
This article suggests a 5th column is moving through the Muslim schools in the UK. The same is true in other countries in Europe and have even raised its ugly head in America. There is a Muslim school funded by the Saudies in northern Virginia. It teaches hatred and jihad. The State Department refuses to close it down. The State Department apparently believes political correctness trumps the safty of America. Jim

It is easy to say" Go back to where you came from",but do not forget that British Muslims are actually born and educated here. They are in the unenviable position of trying to combine two diffent worlds. That is no easy.
Multiculturalism is not about separation, ghettoisation or balkanisation. It is, instead, a recognition of both diversity and the need for common ground, mutual respect,and cultural engagement.
Muslims all over the world never opposed English as a language what they did was opposition of the Western culture and their system of education. In Pakistan, the medium of instruction is Urdu and English and the official language is both English and Urdu. Pakistan is going to send English teachers to Korea for the teaching of English language.
Muslim parents would like their children to be well versed in standard English to follow the National Curriculum and go for higher studies and research to serve humanity.
Majority of Muslim children leave schools with low grades because state schools with monolingual teachers are not capable of teaching English to bilingual children.At the same time, they need to learn and be well versed in Arabic, Urdu and other community languages to keep in touch with their cultural roots and enjoy the beauty of their literature and poetry. Bilinguaaism is an asset but British schooling percieves it as a problem.
I am concerned with the education of the Muslim children. It is nothing to do with integration or segregation. Those state as well as Church schools where Muslim children are in majority, in my opinion, may be designated as Muslim community schools with bilingual Muslim teachers as role models.
Bilingual Muslim children need state funded Muslim schools with bilingual Muslim teachers as role models during their developmental periods. There is no place for a non-Muslim child or a teacher in a Muslim school. Muslim schools do not encourage children to despise British society. They do not threaten social cohesion and no way fueling "ghettoisation and segregation". According to a recent report, Danish and British parents threatened to move their children to other schools because there were too many Muslim children. People are nervous about their children's upbringing.They feel that Muslims belong to different culture. British schooling is the home of institutional racism and this is the main reason why Muslim community and other communities need state funded schools for their children.
