Blackburn primary school saved from closure (From Lancashire Telegraph)

Bit lost here, why open a school for 75 children ?? Are there no state schools nearby already that can take these kids in ?? Half the country is suffering financial hardship and you want us to give our taxes to fund another school for 75 kids ?? Reality really has passed me by !!!!!

Education is important and all education should eb provided by the state through state schools. I would wish that all "Privae" schools of any ature be closed down and refused any state aid of any sort.
Religious schools could exist but at theri own expense and with no state support at all, this would include all "Private" schools.
Education is too important to the country to allow the influence of any other body into the education of our children.

75 parents that don't want to integrate but are happy to take our tax money. Why don't you go cap in hand to the Qatari royal family like the other school did.

I am so proud of what this small school has provided. People who have commented have no idea of the excellent results this school has gained by ofsted. I live nearby and see what beautiful manners and respect for elders the children that attend this school have. We living in Britain have lost all this in the state sector and need to find out what has gone wrong with our education system. The parents have a choice to send their pupils to Jewish and Christian schools and they also have a choice to send their children to a faith school of their own choice. We should support outstanding schools, schools with limited resources and facilities are making better progress than some schools that are funded, we have gone wrong somewhere we have let our children down by not giving them an opportunity to provide them with an education that provides good morals, spirituality and respect. Well at least I am proud to say one school has managed to achieve it all! Maybe we should make a visit and see for ourselves what this little school with good and outstanding results is providing. It is a shame that even though we rant about equal opportunities in our country we in reality do little to show evidence of it. This school should carry on doing what they are doing as I don't know what but they are doing but they are doing something right? maybe we can take learn a lesson or two from this school. I congratulate all the staff the head and pupils ! If only we had more schools like these in which pupils are given support to be educated in an environment which encourages positive relationships with others as well as moral and spiritual values. keep it up as you are a role model for our schools to follow, we wish that your school succeeds and gains all the support it deserves. These parents have saved the government money for 13 years by choosing to have their kids educated in a private school so as far as taxes goes lets be fair , are we really fair are do we really implement equal opportunities? It costs the government over £2,000 to educate each child. lastly lets be positive of what the wonderful things this school has provided for all faiths as well as the community. All the best Palm tree!

Alex ..

A school that provides excellent education, regardless of nationality or race. I dont understand why some schools are funded yet education is 0, and schools that do extreamly well dont get funding. Intergrate? will you intergrate and allow your chirdren in a multicultural school????(jack daniels) Al asr is a fantistic school and it sholud be given soport due to fasct ofsted report? we need more private schools that can give a good foundation in education, respect,

Wow.
For one, find me an exclusive christian or catholic school?
You can't, because it is classed as discrimination. Yet it is perfectly acceptable to have an exclusive islam school and for children of other faiths to be excluded.
Islam provides good morals? Hmm sure, if good morals are treating women as second class citizens and viewing non muslim people as scum.
You speak of equal opportunities, yes there are, so long as you are muslim.
All we hear is community cohesion, multi culturism, all being together as one. Of course this is only one way traffic because if you are muslim you can set up a school that will allow you to secluse yourself from all other communities.
Thought the government and councils were supposed to encourage integration?
Please, before typing a big long comment, think.
You wonder why so called "far right" groups are set up, well here is a reason. People are fed up of bending over backwards to appease faiths whilst having to deny their own faith.

Really, so my child isn't muslim, can they enrol at your school. Only they don't believe in mo ham head, so can they stay away from all R.E lessons. Also they are not allowed to eat meat sacrificed in the name of another idol because the bible tells them so can they have non halal meat. Im sure the school will be able to meet my childs needs seen as most councils have put measures in place to meet muslim needs/demands.

My son just left witton park and he told me all about the 'integration' that went on, especally all the times the police where called. I live in a mixed area so please don't try to lecture me. All they want are Asian values in an English town.

Answer to, Cheese gnome. ..Just like Muslim kids enrol at catholic schools and have to say the daily prayers?? and be part of something they don’t even celebrate? These state schools don’t even compromise??? dont belive what you see because that is the only thing you will ever know!!! Total ignorance.

The strongest argument in favor of sending children to Muslim schools is the presence of an Islamic environment. Muslim kids in most of these schools pray, interact with other multi cutural children in classes and during breaks. They also generally have less exposure to sex, drugs, alcohol and violence. In addition, Muslim schools are a place to build identity and security. I myself went to witton , being a white muslim were do I stand?? I know what goes on in these school far too advanced for they age, totally out of control, Then the government introduces contraception a early age, when rape is increased and you sit down and wonder why!!!!

women second class citizens?infact women still not sure about they rights. read this may shed some light about women in Islam.. :)http://womeninisla

Happy reading :). I was born white catholic myself , since I became a muslim I now understand the freedom of women, I am proud to be one of them!

So why is gromming so common in the Asian community when they have had a life time of Islamic education and preaching?

No Sally. I don't force my children to religion education centres from an early age. I don't stop my children from mixing with other culture's. I don't arrange my children's future partner with their cousin in another country. I don't dictate what they wear or what they do. This is real 21st century Asian culture in the UK and it's wrong. My comment about grooming was also correct, yet our rapists don't hide behind their culture like those 'men' in Rochdale did in court last week. All of this is true, so I'm not a bigot, but you are an idiot. See, it's not nice to be called names.

Your comment shows ignorance.
Muslim children can and do opt out of R.e. Do you really think I would make these remarks without researching first?
No the state schools don't compromise, they bend over backwards to appease.

Bigot? Do you even know the meaning of the word?
Do a bit of research, have you looked into how long asian gangs have been grooming in Blackburn. Do you know there is a trial in Liverpool as we speak? What race are the oxfordgroomers? Take your head out of mainstream media, look at the facts then come back with the bigot insult. Brainwashed sheeple seems an appropriate name for you

I can understand clearly where you are coming from. I too like you used to live in ignorance until I discovered the truth. I hope that some the same light of truth will be reflected upon you too, I recommend that you study the history of women in Britain, see the situation of our own problems that exist in our society and rethink about the fact that why do we despite what we witness ie, pedophiles, relationships falling apart kids showing disrespect and intolerance the list is endless. Why do we not educate ourselves and gain an insight into the truth, I would have lived in total ignorance . I really pity people who do not make an effort to learn about other people but assume things .
I request you to study and learn about all religions and then comment , remember ignorance breeds ignorance. Yes you are right Grooming is wrong and so is the 10000 and more problems we are facing in our society wrong too ! Yet we turn a blind eye towards the real issues in our own home . Read the Quran and discover the truth it will help to dispel the ignorance .

Cheese gnome I think you are living in total ignorance, which part if the faith do you follow that teaches you to disrespect and defame other people's names as well as religion. You clearly have expressed your hatered towards people you do not even care to learn about I pity you and your ignorance. I hope that people like you learn to be more polite and respectful - the world would be a much better place. I suggest you begin to learn how to pronounce the names of people properly and with respect. Show respect to others so respect is shown towards us. Perhaps you are not just ignorant of other peoples faith it seems you need to brush upon your own too if you have one. I suggest you learn about basics start with the bible then study the Quran. I hope that you learn to show respect if you wish too you can change if not I pity you as I am glad my eyes have opened towards the truth.
I am learning about all faiths I may not be a Muslim but I understand what God taught, He certainly did not teach disrespect! All the best Cheese gnomes with your research on respect, kindness, tolerance and humanity as all as more.

Cheese gnome
I agree with Alexandre. By the way the asain word can refer to any one does not refer to Muslim, lol....You sound racist, the fact is you cant read the truth, you only read what suits you. And I am quiet happy if you wish to start a debate on christianty and islam, I will show you facts and proof what the bible says about women..
HIDE WOMAN'S VOICE !


The woman should keep silence in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak, but should be subordinate, as even the law says. If there is any thing they desire to know let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.


Woman should adorn themselves modestly and sensibly in seemly apparel, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly attire but by good deeds. read it http://www.missionis

What I find funny is that you both seem to think that religion can solve your problems when it is simply a tool used by men to oppress you. There are no woman religious leaders in either the Islamic or Catholic Church and even the Anglicans can’t agree what to do. If religion was so good, why are there statically more muslim men in our prisons than white people (in relation to the UK population). If a lifetime of religious education was a cure to the ills of the world, then why are our prisons full of Asian men? What part of their religious education failed? Surely as an atheist, am I not more likely to be a committer of evil acts, yet I am a law abiding citizen.

Solo, you failed to answer my question regarding this issue. Is this because you know I am correct in what I say? Could you therefore correct this idiot ‘sallythomson’ as clearly I am not a bigot.

As for you comment

“I know what goes on in these school far too advanced for they age, totally out of control,”

yet numerous muslim countries advocate ‘child bride’ marriages. So which one would you prefer? Give people the choice to live their lives or create a male dominated state which supports the marriage of a 14yr old to a 30yr old man?

To be honest, the fact you question our decision to promote independence disgusts me.

Religion, the worse thing to happen to this planet.

They not requesting tax payers money. They fund-raising and that's the difference.
Anyway good-on-yer and hope you generate a decent generation much better then the nut heads who criticise your religion for the sake of it.

Forth paragraph clearly states an application for government funding. That's money from taxes you nut head. It's not for the sake of it incidentally; I strongly object to my taxes being used to fund segregation by an oppressive religion.

Oppressive religion!
You're reading too much media controlled by the J**s. Jackass.

Hmm.. What word is J**s? Not being racist are we? The irony is that you both worship the same God, using the same book. What a joke you are.

J**s is not racism and we certainly do NOT use the same book even though we worship the same God as well as Muslims who use the Quran. You are the one who's a comedian.

No, but accusing the J**s of instigating media propaganda against islam would be. Are you going to tell me that there are not elements/characters/
stories from the Old Testament and the Hebrew Bible Torah in the Koran?

Of course there is! Therefore, you are using the same book.

Finally, the fact that you both believe in the same God, have the same prophets, and similar ways of living your life, you disregard them as your enemy. It just goes to show how oppressive you are. In your eyes -If it’s not Islam it wrong!

J D, The elements and characters from the Torah to the Bible and the Quran are very very similar. However Torah to Moses, Bible to Jesus, and the Quran to Mohamed, we have our own prophets resulting in different beliefs and book regardless of one God. I would suppose Moslems would not regard other religions as their enemies, but that you would have to question them yourself.

J D, The J****h schools have rights for government funding as well as Christian schools. Why should the Moslems be excluded.

So you admit that you are using the same book. I never said WHICH book as I was thinking of the old testament, but the fact you state

“The elements and characters from the Torah to the Bible and the Quran are very very similar”

confirms it. They are in fact more than similar, they are the same.

For example - it is well documented that the prophet Abraham (or Ibrahim ) with help of his son Ismael raised the Kaaba pillars and rebuilt it; as I’m sure you know ;0)

I can’t blame the Palestinians for hating the J**s; Palistine is treated so badly, even I shed a tear (remember the footage of the man and son shot whilst hiding behind those steps) but if you look at other Islamic countries around the world, there is very little love for Christianity or any other religion.

sen c bl wrote:

1 - No religion should have schools based on faith. Not Islam, christianity or Jewish. (why are we using *** anyway -its not a dirty word!!)

2 - Blackburn is very segregated and creating an Islamic primary school means that an asian child will hardly ever interact with a white child and have nothing but Islamic teachings. Where will this child learn about western European culture if it’s schooling, medresa and prayers are Muslim/Asian biased and even more so if one or both parents are straight over from Pakistan/India/Bangl
adesh?

Ask–why am I here if I don’t like western living?

It’s a fair question.

J. D, I take on board your point with regards to segregation, but until faith schools are outlawed, those excluded will feel and remain unjust.
Even though the holy books are very similar because it came from one God, the do's and dont's are very very different. The J**s have never accepted Jesus was a prophet and neither was Mohamed. Their sole question to God is 'Why when you sent a great prophet as Moses and a king as great as Soloman'. The beliefs are very very different.

Sorry but you are wrong. The beliefs are still similar, it's just that most people have decided to ignore the more strict ones. If you look at Leviticus in the bible, you will see many similarities with the do's and don'ts. Again why have you used J** like it's a dirty word?

As an athiest I consider religion to be the source of evil and the sooner we end it the better.

You are wrong J D. The history is identical and when prophets appeared the beliefs changed, as ordered by them and so it is God's wish that we follow accordingly, and not prophet's.

Deary me.
Heres my view on religion of any kind, it sucks. I refuse to worship a figure of anyones imagination. I also refuse to follow this my god is bigger than yours balony.
Thank you though for clearing one thing up, not all Muslims are Asian and not all Asians are Muslim. So i am now free to point out that Muslims do not integrate into society. 45 muslim paedophiles on trial in Liverpool as we speak, 10 muslim paedophiles rumbled in Oxford, Charlene Downes, Lancashire police describing a street in Blackpool as a honeypot. How many muslim taxi drivers have been prosecuted for sexual assaults in Blackburn/Accrington
?
As stated i follow no religion, i am an independant infidel, i know the bible, i know the quran. I also know there are a lot more fundamental muslims than there are fundamental christians.
Now maybe you can answer me this question. Why are there so many cases of muslim paedophiles, and dont give me the oh its only 4% of all paedophiles propaganda that you see on mainstream news. Why is it that muslims cannot integrate, what is wrong with Audley and Whalley range? Why do muslims look upon white females as easy meat and why do muslims look upon non muslims as vermin?
