Sadly she will most likely get sacked, and pretty soon a 50% Muslim school will become 100%. If she was white she would have been sacked already for her "strict" views.
We don't. It's apparently a 'successful' school. Yet just listen to what she says about her school and the problems it has. She's clearly lying. She's not at all convincing. Immigration is and has destroyed London and the country.
Apparently radical left activists broke into the school when it was being set up and tried to sabotage equipment to prevent it being opened that is how seriously deranged the radical left are.
Based on what she's said, she's got a fair argument under that she defines the school as secular and honestly it's about time a lawyer pushes the line "if we can have religious schools tailored to one religion, then equally we should be able to have secular schools which don't have to enable the practice of religion" At the end of the day it's not all about religious groups, the UK has a growing non religious community who are tired of their children's learning being impacted through the actions of extremist followers within religious groups. As an adult, you don't get to stomp your feet and pout to get what you want, as the headmistress points out - they know what they signed up for, if they don't like it then maybe it's not the school for them.
So it transpires that the person who brought this case was getting suspended for threatening to stab another pupil. Katherine didn't deny it, she just said she didn't want to go into that. So I guess it is true.
That is easy to achieve. My dog has higher standards of integrity than our politicians. They are spineless cowards who bow down to minorities, instead of just saying no. When you have good reason it's easy to justify, this brave teacher exhibits this perfectly. Islamic extremists belong in Islamic countries, not here. They are working very very hard to undermine and control our culture.
She simply does not care about votes. Stupid fanatic about Muslim religion after all. Those fanatic Muslim followers make the religion looks bad. The same for Jehova witness religion
This is not the child. It is the parents of this child ordering her to do this. I will bet the shirt off my back. In fact i will go further and say it is the father. !!!
I support Katharine Birbalsingh totally. NO other religion is celebrated in the school why should it be any different for Islam? I'd have ask the student why is it so adamant that is was to start praying now when it has not in previous years?
Not celebrated, it's called praying don't be confused. Also why is it hard to fathom Muslims praying separately. We also never had a case of men turning into women but we have become tolerant towards that. Rituals?? Do you see them lighting candles or sacrificing children in your classrooms. I mean come on be real. They first of all go and clean them selves with water. And if you watch them pray all they do is bow down to God pray for 5mins and that's it. Clearly I'm sure people have watched muslims pray and when has praying been disrespectful
@@kingc4082When you demand it as a privilege in a school where it is not permitted. When it is done as a political show of force outside Downing Street. Also who is tolerant of men turning into women? Who is tolerant of that fallacy? Your strawman is feeble at best.
@sebastianbolt7886 Its already too late .Their population is 4 million and look what they do and can you imagine when they are 10 million what will happen?
Europe and America are just bunch of gullible educated illiterates. They are paying for their foolishness. Islam is not a religion of PEACE know this and know PEACE. They are taking over the West unfortunately.
Hmmm the broader issue would be the islamification of Britain as well as Europe. The fact that they had threats of violence, racial abuse, vandalism, break ins etc says it all.
In Islam the 2 are not oppositional concepts they are what the religion is about. Allah and Mohammad are not the same as Jesus. The goal of Islam is complete submission.
@@run2cat4runThat isn't a law against freedom of speech, its ensuring schools have a right to be secular schools and not impose multiple divisive religious observances across the school community.
@@run2cat4runIf anything it's protecting the freedom of speech... What you're looking for is the freedom of expression which is what this school is already exercising and which is under threat, this is a secular western school being threatened by middle eastern religious ideals, are you actually thick or something?
In India, a year ago similar demand to allow burkha by Muslim female students within school premise was made into Religious Discrimination Issue by BBC and so many other western channels. Now that similar scenarios are being played out in Western Countries, the stance of media has changed. My presonal view, Katharine herself is probably a third generation of Sikh/Hindu origin migrant, she has adopted to British values and practices her ancestors beliefs outside the school premise. Then the specific group of parents should also be inspired to leave their religious practices outside the school gates.
Ms Birbalsingh is of Caribbean origin from both parents. Her father is from Guyana and in Guyana we are Hindus, Muslims, Christians etc and there is no religious animosity. And in the school system, it's the same way. Ms Birbalsingh 's school is like the normal Caribbean school where there are Hindu, Muslim and Christian who are not very conscious of religious difference. Old Birbalsingh was married to a Muslim and he was the father of Katherine's father; but then inter-faith marriages among Indians is usual since they think of themselves as a racial group and not a religious group. The kind of school KB is running resembles the usual Caribbean school.
You’re a fine one to talk. 50 hindutva extremists taking over the Uk to every 1 muslim person. You have full control of the media and are doing your best to create divide and hatred for peaceful Muslim citizens. Everyone is aware of your agenda. Hate speech get out of here.
Teachers/headteacher, whichever way you look at it they are TEACHERS.. in the past few months it wasnt a head teacher who was hounded out of his job and forced into hiding by this mob it was a teacher....@@leabeauty837
Disagree. Those advocating allowing Islam to be practiced in this school are not wrong because of their religious convictions, they are wrong because this school is a secular school with excellent academic credentials that parents have presumably until now been quite happy to accept the ethos of because their kids are getting a damn good education. What we have here is just one more example of a clash of cultures which is now going to be settled in our courts. If this goes against the school I think its teachers should just all resign including the head and take their values elsewhere. They certainly shouldn’t just accept it and be forced to abandon their values. I think if they did this the political heat would switch to those causing all the damn fuss.
My black daughter went to Michaela and left only two years ago… it’s a brilliant…. Absolutely brilliant and teaches children to have respect for each other, and prepares them for the workplace. I’d the school is so bad why is it oversubscribed… Muslim parents not happy can select another school…
@@ArtyRP1no middle East country accepts these mentals, middle East countries knows about them that's y they diverts them to Europe uk us😂😂 Brits has to wake up & defend the great britain from this CANCER
That’s not how they work. They agree to the rules initially and then as their numbers grow, they petition and protest more and more until they get what they want
Why the death threats over this issue? Why the narcissist behaviour? Why is the black teacher receiving racist remarks? Why can't we ALL live in peace? 🤔. Thank you Julia for letting Katherine tell the whole story. I really admire Katherine and I wish that I had a head teacher like her when I went to school 🫶❤️
They demand on pain of death. Think Batley teacher still in hiding; French teacher beheaded; mother & son humiliated by a hall full of Muslim men and police because the boy had scuffed a book (also received threats of violence); Charlie Hebdo massacre. Sickening.
What a beautiful example of standing up for school choice. She is exactly what you would want in a teacher who is teaching your children. its all about school, reading, writing, science, math, history. Its about learning how to get along with others who are different from you in views, culture, religion and language. This teacher needs to be applauded for her work, not taken to court over a religious issue that has no standing in a secular school...
You've just contradicted yourself. Getting along with religion means having a quiet/prayer area. Banning them means banning religious people and not getting along with them.
@@islamsnapwhat a load of bollocks she's trying to create a school that respects different cultures and beliefs this is what's wrong with Islam they want everyone to conform to their beliefs and go out of the way to disregard everyone else's beliefs showing a disregard for everyone else 👍
@@stanleywatters8857 I understand what you’re saying but I believe your wrongly understood about Islam. If you look carefully in fact, to disrespect another religion is explicitly condemned in the Quran; “Do not abuse those whom they worship besides Allah” (6:109). If a person claims to be Muslim, he is not allowed to insult or disrespect another religion. This is forbidden according to the Quran.
@@maikilreategui1271And it was the PLO under Arafat that instigated that war in a majority Christian country. Sadly the Christians left for the UK and USA and never went back to claim what was theirs. That's why the Palestinians can never be trusted.
My goodness, this head teacher has described a worst possible nightmare attempting to satisfy all the diversity between faiths and for her to achieve the highest accolade being the top school in the last two years is nothing short of a miracle. Please, please, can we have more head teachers like Katherine Birbalsingh. What a wonderful woman!
Kids are there to learn not pray. To those who don't like the rules, then simply find another school. Threats of violence because of this is just pathetic.
In India about 2 years ago, a school made a rule that hijab was not allowed in the campus when more and more girls started wearing the hijab and created a ruckus around prayers. The British and western media made the case that the Indian government was anti muslim and cited this as a case in point.
there's millions of muslims in India. it's not as if it's a Christian country. so it's expected to find students with hijabs. did they ban Sikhs from wearing their turbans too?
The Indian brigade fuelling hate speech against Muslims. Yawn yawn 🥱 what’s new? Wake up world. Co.exist peacefully as humanity. Peace and love ❤️ Tolerance and Respect FOR ALL.
Bro Hijiab for many women are must based on their religion, it does not affect anyone why ban it ? and by the way India is a secular society so you make so this rule is indeed discrimination.
They're too busy fighting a legal case about violating a human rights law and freedom of expression. Why is everyone so stunned? Are they suddenly disputing and critiquing their own western laws? Whatever happened to democracy? I think people here need to really ask themselves what the real issue they have with this is?
@@richardshortall5987ohhhhhhh yeah a little girl decides to pray in the playground is bringing shame and disrepute to the school Are you fucking retarted?
I am an extremely tolerant person but given what's happened in the uk in the last 10 years, i feel like anything related to Islam always ends up with problems for everyone
OK. So you want Muslims to not fulfill their religious obligation just because you don't feel comfortable. How does a Muslim person praying harm you personally. I know the vast majority of the western people don't care about religion as much put you can't force us to become godless society like you
So what about the peaceful hardworking Muslims living PEACEFULLY paying tax 💰 in this country living for decades- it’s not their country too? Working as doctors nurses engineers lawyers, breaking their backs and working to keep the country afloat- it’s not their country too no? You’re a sick diseased rhinoceros pizzle. Sorry but your comments are hate fuelled and divisive.
We need more Head Teachers like Katharine Birbalsingh. I was saddened to hear that children are being intimidated to follow strict Islamic rules against their wishes and it clearly is not making a happy school environment. Interesting that when the school population was 30% muslim the school functioned well, when it reached 50% the cracks started to appear. Maybe certain Muslim families joined with the intention of changing the rules to suit themselves? I hope common sense prevails and the judgement goes in the school's favour. Isn't it shocking that these people are intimidating teachers and children!!
The Islamification of the whole country is extremely worrying. Why is the taxpayer paying for legal aid for the Muslim girl, that's what I want to know?
No one is forcing them to Islam. They are doing this of their own accord. Perhaps they have used fine reasoning and judgement to understand that it is God’s true religion and wish to become one of the righteous. Educate yourself first. No one will force you to be Muslim if you don’t want to. If you want to know a religion that truly doesn’t tolerate you (assuming you are Christian) look to Judaism. But you perhaps support the Israel state while they laugh and mock you.
@@islamsnap Have you ever heard of Sheikh Asim? He said Muslims will be asking people to accept Islam in about 50 years time, and if they refuse, their heads will be separated from their bodies. I can provide the youtube link if you want it.
I haven't seen any evidence of Islamification in the UK. If you are referring to women wearing headscarves, that's a personal choice and that is not 'Islamification'. Not sure if such a word exists.
Had a feeling there was more to the story than what was said on an Islam podcast. All the reasons she mentioned are legitimate. We don't have a right to force our way of life onto others and we don't need a room to practice our religion. Shame on those who try to intimidate and threaten you and go against the teaching of respecting the rules of the place you live.
We don't need a room but we still need to pray at certain times of the day and it's compulsory. It wouldn't be a problem for the teachers because the children can pray outside and it normally coinsides with lunch time
@@SomaliPatriote This is a secular school meaning it is independent of religion and doesn't really want to be associated with any religion. This should be respected.
@@orhanmekic9292 what about the freedom to umm idk have a break? how is finding a small corner in the playground to do what YOU WANT TO DO during your BREAK a problem. secularism is non religious, not anti religious
Who is ‘forcing ‘ who? Get your facts straight. Praying is the peace. Whatever form you are doing it. Ask yourself who is forcing who? Wrong. So wrong.
It should be the same as in France. School and religion are totally separate. If you wish, have comparative discussion about religions but keep prayers out of it. How would Muslims react if prayer rooms were also used by Christian or Hindu or other denominational children to pray? Would they complain that their place of worship was being defiled?
School and religion should be separate. This may happen when William gets on the throne - he doesn’t want to have to attend church every week as the Royals have always done. The late Queen was a believer as is Charles apparently but William not so much. Now we are such a diverse country seems a good moment to weaken the ties between church and crown. Hope I’m still around when William is the King.
@@Froggygirl2107 So Scots, Welsh and Northern Irish don't count? This is why the English are hated so much. You seem to believe that England IS the UK. Get back in your box and learn a bit of humility.
It’s clear, if you don’t want your child to abide by the ethos of school, don’t send them there. Well done headteacher, it is clear why you have a successful and high achieving school!
starts a legal case the same time she is suspended for threatening to stab another pupil and gonna use public money to do so, wtf is going on in this country!
She is standing up for Christian values.... Moslems have a sense of self importance...if she doesn't like it why is she attending a Christian school...go to her Muslim schools
They have no intention of integrating its always been muslims pushing their religion & beliefs even though living in a Christian country go live in a muslim country if thats what you want
I couldn’t imagine moving to another county and expecting that county to accommodate me to the extent of changing their society and culture. Good on the had teacher. Britain is disappearing before our eyes and we need to to stand up before it’s too late
But to change our culture is WHY they are coming here. The Quran makes it the duty of Muslims to spread and usurp native cultures and in the UK they can be paid benefits while they do it.
Just reading between the lines, but I think this girl has been radicalized after being at the school for some time. The parents may be apparently supporting her now because of community pressure.
To be fair, I don't think he can because the case has been heard and the judge is now making his/her decision. What he should do - and what his party has singularly failed to do over the past 14yrs - is to crack down on demands, 2-tier policing, critical race theory and all the other stuff that is so very destructive to the UK.
Hats off to the headteacher what a shining example of how things can work, shame it isn’t echoed across the country and the weak pathetic leadership of our country
This school student base has grown from 30% Muslim to now 50%. Reminds me of an Indian politician being interviewed about Muslims in India. He said when you have a population of Muslims exceeding 30%, you will get problems as they will push for control and make demands.
This is sad but is expected to happen in the UK. Currently a minority group is demanding total adherence to their religion. Non tolerance will always prevail. Wherever they are in minority they will demand their way due to their belief system: Dar al-Harb means 'house of war' and refers to the dominion of war around the world. Generally, it refers to any place that Islam cannot be practiced without persecution. It also refers to a country that is not under Islamic rule and is thus not amenable to the majority of its inhabitants practicing Islam.
I really hope Katherine wins this battle, as i can see this going pear shaped and Islam once again winning. Outrageous behavior by those sending death threats and insulting the teachers + other students.
This lady is deserving of a knighthood this fantastic lady should be put in charge of education in the United Kingdom so proud of this wonderful lady ❤people show this heroine some love 👏👏👏👏👏👏
If all schools had to provide a prayre room for each religion teaching would never get done. Why is it only one religion that cause trouble and why do we as a country allow this. Our education system is for education not praying no matter what religion you are.
What a strong leader with the best interest of children at the heart of all she does even if unpopular. If only all headteachers had her strength of character.
Why should we set up special schools purely for them...if your religion is so important to you...live or move to a country of that faith... do not move to a country not of your faith and then demand they change to suit you 😡
no we should teach islam out of them, we need to convert them to anything but islam, I feel safer with a satanist than I do an Muslim, at least they are honest with me, and dont want to kill me or support those who do want to kill me
ALL faith schools should be banned. They should all be secular using this school as a template. The Head teacher should be given a damehood. She is doing a wonderful job unlike the people in our government.
@@TryingtoTellYou ha ha the good old days. Talking about punishment , when I was in school no one lifted an eye lid when we were physically punished:-)
It’s ridiculous that this can even be brought as a case. Waste of taxpayers money. This is not a Muslim country. And never ever will be. Our values and principles have come from our Christian heritage. This needs to be put to bed once and for all.
Soon it will become a Muslim school, as just as 30% became 50% in a few small years, 50% will soon be 70%, and before you know it 100%. Demographics are changing unchecked at an alarming rate, and schools are one of the most obvious and hard to miss reflections of that.
@@rb1062 You do realise there's a multifaith room in every public institution, except this school. Hence the legal action. Even Heathrow has one. Clutching at straws about covid, I think. Cheerios and good day
The school should get parents to sign an undertaking that they will not EVER make any such demands and will ALWAYS abide by the rules of the school . Later if they create problems the school could sue them.
Every country got that one party which is responsible for this day situation. Identify that party and never ever vote them. Politically correctness is damn bad thing..
Why bother to attempt to explain anything to individuals following this "religion"? It's a complete waste of time and breath. Simply quote the rules of the school and let them get on with it. If they don't like the rules, they can withdraw their children. Seems like they ignore school rules just like they ignore the Laws of this Country.
Thats true , they should change just like in the uk it was illegal for a man to marry a man and now you can , hooooray all for changing outdated culture 😂😂😂 I will join the new culture where you cannot define what is a woman anymore 😂
So utterly wrong of the Judge to allow the identity of the school to go public. Surely with his/her level of intelligence, he/she would realise the danger that the school would face from those more radical Muslims. Of course, the press really don't care, as for them, it's a major scoop and continued viewership. So good to hear this wonderful lady explain the truth of the situation.
I can't see any legal or logical reason for the judge to disclose the details. In fact it makes me wonder whether or not the judge is in sympathy with the young muslim.
@@terebanessa1024It will go in favour of the Jihadi. Our government will instruct justice not to be served by telling the judge to find in favour of it and its immigrant family.
The head teacher was not stopping her and other Muslim girls praying, as they were allowed to pray outdoors, as they always had. NO-ONE was allowed a prayer room inside the school, be they Christian, Hindu, muslim, or any other religion due to not being room in the school for prayers, which you'd already know, had you listened to the head teacher explain. This 'lovely' muslim girl had been suspended last year for threatening to stab another pupil and allegedly brought the case to harm the school because of her suspension. The case is being funded by legal aid, which strangely enough is never available to most citizens of the UK Are you not alarmed at the death and bomb threats to staff and also the targeting/intimidation of staff outside of the school or is this simply permitted/encouraged in Islam?@AA-yz2ue
@AA-yz2ueSounds good to me at the end of the Day you can not Bully people into getting you own way. If you want to practise you little Fairy tale religion, you can do it in your own Muslim country.
