Denmark : Respect draws queues at Muslim schools

A lack of resources at private Muslim schools does not discourage parents from signing up their children

Private Muslim schools around the country report long waiting lists, despite claims that they lack social responsibility and broad subject areas.

'We have 700 children on our waiting list and have had to introduce a rule that you can't sign children up until they have turned three years,' Mohammed Khatib, headmaster of DIA Private School in Copenhagen, told daily newspaper Urban.

Khatib attributes the long waiting lists, which can run up to four years, to the schools' positive graduation results and mother-tongue instruction.

AbdAllah J. Tolstrup, head of the Moroccan-Danish School, agreed with Khatib, and said the schools' facilities were certainly not the main draw for parents.

'We are the poorest school in the capital region. Besides providing respect, however, we can guarantee that there are neither immigrant-haters nor people hostile toward Islam here,' said Tolstrup.

Ebbe Lilliendal Jørgensen, national director of the Danish Free School Union, an interest group for the country's 261 private schools, said that respect for individual students encouraged many Muslim parents to wave goodbye to public schools and to enrol their children at private ones.

'At the immigrant schools, we start off with a respect for individual children, meet it, and involve the parents,' said Jørgensen.

Niels Egelund, a professor at the Danish University of Education, is disappointed in the increasing waiting lists. Over several years, he has tried to encourage more immigrants of Muslim background to choose a public school, but has now begun to admit defeat.

'It's a shame. Public schools have a need for all types of people.'

Sounds like segregation for a privileged elite.

Anybody here know anything about such systems?

Bet those Danes aren't yet used to being considered "negras" eh!

Just another example of how these 'people' don't wish to assimilate. They want to have their hateful indocrination begining at age four. By the time they are eight they are beyond cultural redemption and are ready to strap on the explosives and go to the mall.

How do they define "positive graduation results?" In today's education parlance, what are their outcomes?

Does this "respect for individual children" include respect of individual INFIDEL children?

The Scandinavian countries are committing suicide/genocide at warp speed...and then bragging about it in their newspapers.
After the last 20 yrs., how can any sane person look at this and not feel disgust at the tolerance and multiculturalism that is going to destroy that entire continent?

mother-tongue instruction

I have seen this in the Muslim schools in the South of Thailand. First the Muslims refuse to learn to speak the language, then they complain that they are "discriminated" against because they are poor. Human rights NGO's rush to their support, blasting the government and majority national population for their bigotry and refusal to implement sharia. They attack and kill some soldiers and when they soldiers attempt to enforce the law and kill some terrorist, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch rush to the protection of the poor Muslim majority (in a certain geographical area) that is oppressed by the evil non Muslim government.

"Mother-tongue instruction" is code for teaching a secret curriculum of hate. Because so few Westerners speak Arabic, we can't even keep up with the vitriol spewed out in mosques, much less in these private schools.

This apparently is not far from the truth. Most graduates of moslim schools can not do math beyond simple addition and subtraction and their lit and writing skills are still at a level comparable to lower grade levels.

Naw! Its the ciriculum, you know those essential courses like: Mein Kampf and the Literature of Hate, Chemistry (mixing ammonium nitrate explosives), Arts and Crafts (making vests for suicide bombers), Industrial Arts (making IEDs), Multi-media and Drama (how to fake atrocities ala Qana and Al Dura)

Maybe I can help.

If Abdul straps a bomb under his shirt and blows up 10 infidels, how many sub-humans are killed?

Answer: 10

Abdul is a child of Allah, thus not a sub-human.
