I don't see anything wrong with a school that is run in the terms of a particular faith - unfortunately I went to a Catholic secondary school - including in Islam as long as it adheres to all the laws and regulations of other schools. So on that basis I see little wrong with a Muslim school wanting to be run and governed by those within the faith.

However if there are indeed underhanded and illegal tactics going on - and I'm pretty sure even just the mention of these allegations will have some people already making their minds up - then not only will there be repercussions for our education systems but also in the perpetual notion that some Muslims are trying to 'take over' the country. I've always disbelieved that suggestion and if these allegations turn out to be false or exaggerated hopefully it'll help put it to bed once and for all. Or at least for a while.....

Actually I just heard something on the radio about this - it seems some are presenting the story as if those allegedly being 'forced out' are white/British/non-Muslim etc whereas this appears not to be true. Sketchy suggestions are that some being named as being part of the faith, just not 'Muslim enough' or whatever.
