OFSTED and Islamic 'schools'

thefragile

I'd misread, I thought you meant Ofsted would want to close them down just because they were Steiner or Montessori.....

Doesn't matter.

Whether there are unregulated secular schools or not, if you say you're only closing down unregulated religious schools it sends all the wrong messages.

Unregulated religious s hooks are bad because they're unregulated, not because they're religious.

Actually...

Kids Company probe into whether school was UNREGULATED when ministers paid out £3m

^^^ well that remains to be decided on, and if the finding is that it is an alternative education established that was unregistered, then it looks more like an administrative/management blunder, which pretty much describes the running of Kids Company

The unregistered religious schools are deliberately unregistered.

I agree they all should be shut down, religious or not. I was just stating that they are are mostly likely going to be strict religious schools.

Frankly the government couldn't give a stuff if schools are unregulated or not, or whether they're religious or not. As long as they can wash their hands of responsibility, they're happy.
