بريطانيا: خطوات للحيلولة دون إدارة المسلمين للمدارس

خبر من مصادر إنجليزية.

تقوم وزارة التربية والتعليم البريطانية حاليًّا بخطوات لمحاولة إقصاء المسلمين المحافظين عن إدارة المؤسسات التعليمية، وذلك بإجبار من يتولون هذه المناصب على تبني القيم البريطانية التي قد تخالف الإسلام، والترويج لها مع إمكانية معاقبة من يثبت تقصيرهم في ذلك أو مناهضته.

وقد أعرب المجلس الإسلامي البريطاني عن خطورة هذه الخطوات التي تفرض على المسلمين تبني قِيم قد تتعارض مع تعاليمهم الدينية وآرائهم الشرعية، مشددًا على وحشية تلك الآراء التي تحاول وزارة التربية والتعليم والحكومة فرضها لمواجهة مزاعم هيمنة الإسلاميين على بعض المدارس؛ المصدر: شبكة الألوكة.

'British values' rules may prevent Muslims from managing schools

Muslims becoming trustees or governors of British schools is threatened because of the possible new rules for academies and free schools that compel them to promote British values are "dangerous".

UK Education Secretary Michael Gove has drawn up funding agreements that will allow him to shut down schools or kick out governors if he believes a member of the academy trust is "unsuitable" because of "relevant conduct".

Unacceptable actions are defined as anything "aimed at undermining the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs".

A claim that the Department for Education denies is The Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) has raised fears that the reforms, which will apply to new academies and free schools, could prevent people with conservative Muslim beliefs viewed as incompatible with "British values" being involved.

Talha Ahmad, a senior member of the MCB, told the Guardian: "As a matter of principle, to have so much power vested in one hand is wrong. But then to have powers over an area over which there is no consensus is, frankly speaking, quite dangerous.

"People may have different views, and those views might be informed by faith. But does that mean the secretary of state should have the power to arbitrate these ideas, so much so that they should not be part of an educational establishment?

"This whole idea of giving the secretary of state the power to decide which views fall foul of British values, on matters such as school governors, seems to be draconian."

Mr Gove told Birmingham schools teachers who were in the wake of the Trojan Horse controversy over Islamist influence that they must "actively promote British values".
