I myself teach at a primary school where many of the children are from an Islamic background and I endeavour to teach the children about good hygiene and the biology as they go through puberty with clear links to the Islamic guidance on this matter. How a baby is conceived is secondary science, when a baby is conceived and what awesome responsibilities that entails is secondary SRE and by seeking to remove this from schools you are taking a step backwards.

Far from Muslim schools, whether state funded or otherwise, helping social cohesion and religious harmony I can only see this leading to greater divisions and less understanding. Integration, openness and the right information at the right age are the only way forward.

Jazak Allah Khayral Jazaa.

Mashallah Allahu akbar.

Barakallahu fik for your time and effort may Allah swt reward you in this life and the next Ameen.

It is also gross hypocrisy for the police to prosecute paedophiles when the government is overseeing boy scouts being given condoms from the age 11 and girls of the same age being told it is OK to have sex if they use 'protection'. Boys and girls at age 11 are not allowed to marry but they can have sex and produce children. Every parent is worried about his child being indoctrinated into the idea that gay and sexual promiscuity is "normal" modes of behaviour. At the same time, all parents have the right to control their children and it is their Duty to control them.

It is an eye opening for the Muslim parents who keep on sending their children to state schools with non-Muslim monolingual teachers. Bilingual Muslim children need state funded Muslim schools with bilingual Muslim teachers a s role models during their developmental periods. Muslim teachers are in a better position to teach sex education to teenagers according to Islamic perspectives. There is no place for a non-Muslim child or a teacher in a Muslim school. State funded Muslim schools are crucial for social cohesion, religious and cultural harmony. They are preparing children and young people to face the challenges of life in modern Britain and to also contribute in a positive way to wider society. Muslim children will develop self-confidence and self-esteem. According to TES, pupils make more progress at Muslim secondary schools than anyother type of schools. They are promoting tolerance and support the spiritual, moral, social, linguistic and cultural development of pupils.

Jazakumullah khaeran for all your effort in educating parents about SRE and their options.
I watched all the video and implore all parents especially Muslims to help this campaign in all the ways they can. I AM DOING MY PART BY FORWARDING MAILS ON SREislamic to other parents, raising awareness and encouraging them to act as well. Insha Allah, I am not stopping there.
We cannot afford to fold our arms, this is about our children's welfare and ours too. We have to act early too.
May Allah make it easy for us. Ameen!
