Don't send your kids to full time Islamic school

[union]

I went to one, and I agree that the academics tend to be subpar. I see no harm in sending your kids to one for elementary school, though; just make sure to get them out by the age of 10.

Why elementary school? That's when students build their academic foundation.

How did you get your AIDS, was it from one of these catholic schools you admire so greatly?

Good Islamic schools are the exception. The rule is as Khalid has described, ineffective schools with unqualified teachers.

I got it from Basra.

So long as you agree there's an exception.

They may exist, rare as the unicorn though.

I'd assume that if it's an authentic school, most teachers are competent enough to maintain a beneficial learning environment at a basic level. What do elementary students learn, aside from reading comprehension and rudimentary math/science? Certified teachers should at least be capable of that, but teaching at a higher level becomes more complicated, particularly high school since that's where the lovely interplay between religion and "secular" education becomes most blatant.

Guys the problem with Islamic schools especially the one in Europe they are not managed the same way as Christian and public schools. The school material is worthless if the Islamic schools were conducted the same way as christian schools it would have not been a problem.

its good to give you're children the Islamic teachings they need in life that's not the issue but the difficulties you get in regard of the comparably healthier environment of other public schools. Many Islamic schools continue to be disorganized.When Kids get to college they will get serious problems academic schooling problems to educate them selves further at university level because they missed the essential basic education back in high school and primary school. Most Muslims send their kids to Islamic schools just to let them fit and get some sort of Islamic identity but they forget that their children need basic good education and they wont get that in Islamic schools. The best option for Muslim parents is to send their kids to Christian schools its good for their educational development and in the weekends they can send them to Quran schools i think that's the best option.

Tell me why you think religious schools would struggle with the "lovely interplay between religion and "secular" education"?

The same way a lot of public schools struggle with the dilemma: What's the appropriate balance between religion and science within a science classroom? Is it detrimental to have an abstinence based sex-ed curriculum? Et cetera, et cetera. Regardless of the school type, issues that pertain to religion and secularism tend to be very mucky. I'm not suggesting that it's an absolute struggle, I'm sure that there are Islamic schools that fair very well for priming students for advanced studies in secular education; it's just - in my experience - a lot don't, which can also be said of a lot of public schools, as well. America isn't exactly brimming with a plethora of great, affordable schooling options. We're doing quite well on the university level, but it's a struggle with schooling on both primary and secondary levels.
