A better education is offered due to money, you pay for it you get better, just like health, or your house or car. Should Jews get better health care or their own clinics? Why am i saying this? We are one step away from that with Asian minorites already. 

No lesser or better education should be offered to someone due to their religious beliefs.

Thing that pisses me off, the Gov will hammer more money into a school for a religious minority than they ever will at a normal state school, no wonder you get morons coming out of there as well.

Right so its my freedom of choice to send my son to that college when he grows up. He's not jewish, but i dont mind the odd RE lesson, i want him to go there, if there is a fee i will pay, what do you think they will say?

Can you imaging refusing someone for being black from a normal school?

Any evidence to back that claim up? Sounds made up tbh.

Have to say Toons Taylor, you raise some very valid points mate.

I'll stick up for you!  Its funny how this country has so many fence sitters and a growing number of people in the PC Brigade. Seems fewer and fewer people are prepared to express a different opinion or one they fear doesn't 'conform'.

I agree with that tbh.

Don't forget the Anglicans as well. They have their own schools.

I may be generalising   , but  how is that different to any other thread Gejon?

I didn't say anything about anybody pouring money into the various types of schools Gejon.

Imagining things?

I did say I agree with Toons Taylor about some of his points though. The one specific issue he raised that I agree wholeheartedly with is the fact that the Jewish schools/Muslim Schools wouldn't let a white lad from middle England enrol if they wanted to go there (say, they offered a better standard of education or whatever).........which is bollocks.

I've got no problem with variety and everyone doing their thing religion wise, each to their own, but most minorities are the first to complain about being bullied, segregated or hard done by when many make no effort whatsoever to integrate. YET, they wouldn't ever meet halfway and say "ok, let people understand our religion/way of life better, let kids come to our schools for a week to experience it and learn about the cultural differences".

That would never happen, its a closed door and an open wallet. Happy to take but reluctant to give back in my experience.

Where, in my original post, did I say everyone should be up in arms about it?

I didn't. What I did say was that more and more people seem afraid to say anything thats means they do anything other than sitting on the fence.

When I talked to the guys in my office about it those who know me and feel comfortable saying what they honestly feel said 'Integration - only works one way, my kid could never get in to a minority school if they wanted", those others that I know less well said "Oh well, what can we do about it, it doesn't make too much difference does it?"

I know they wouldn't say that to people they know better, you could tell by the way they said.

I don't really give a f*** if people are up in arms about it or not but I do think minorities do little to integrate when it comes to education.

i'd rather my hard earned taxes were spent on renewing trident than spent on faith schools.there ye are

Exactly, seems like its getting the hump for the sake of it.

The main majority of the students who attend the jewish schools in Gateshead are actually from other countries, so I would have to say they must be privately funded. A mate of mine's wife works at the halls of residence, says they are scruffy bastards as well

.......and thus the truth was set free..
