Stop Racism in Education

This petition was published by Afzaal Babwani on Feb 06, 2007

We, the undersigned, ask the Prime Minister to take immediate action to ensure that racist literature is not used within British schools.

We write further to the article in the Evening Standard and other papers that the Saudi-faith school King Fahd Academy in London is using textbooks produced by the Saudi Ministry of Education which describe Jews as “monkeys” and Christians as “pigs”.

They ask pupils to list the repugnant characteristics of Jews. The books are very offensive to Christians, Jews and Muslims.

The books have been taught at the school since September 2005 and the Ofsted inspection did not uncover them in March 2006.

Prime Minister Blair needs to take steps to now to Stop Racism in Education.
