As the new school year approaches the Parents’ Union in Occupied Jerusalem has reiterated its rejection of the Israeli curriculum in Palestinian schools urging parents not to let their children attend classes using Israeli textbooks.
In a statement the union warned that the Israeli curriculum aims to strip the Palestinian students of their identity and their belonging to their homeland history and religion.
The union held the Israeli municipality in Jerusalem and the Israeli ministry of education fully responsible for any disruption of the educational process in the holy city through imposing curriculums and opening new classrooms and buildings in Arab schools for that purpose.
