An Islamic school in Birmingham is suing the Office for Standards in Education (Ofsted) because the school was given a failing grade and listed as “inadequate.”
The audacity of Islamic supremacists and jihadists knows no bounds. Ofsted gave this school a failing grade because of an “inflammatory” leaflet discovered on a school shelf. It doesn’t matter that it was 25 years old, as stated in the article below. It’s the content that matters, and the fact that it was readily available at the school. Here’s what was in the leaflet:
- “Today we find that the sons and daughters of Islam are under continuous attack by the forces of non-Islam.”
- “It promoted the Khaleefah, which is defined as ‘the total rulership of Muslims over the world.’”
Instead of condemning what was in the leaflet, profusely apologizing and removing the leaflet promptly, the Birmington Islamic school is suing. This reaction is consistent with the leaflet’s message.
“Birmingham Islamic school sues Ofsted after being failed for leaflet,” by Nazia Parveen, Guardian, January 26, 2020:
An Islamic school in Birmingham has mounted a legal challenge against Ofsted after it was failed by the watchdog over a 25-year-old leaflet.
Ofsted rated Birchfield independent girls’ school in Aston as “inadequate” after inspectors found an “inflammatory” leaflet about a 1994 Islamic conference in the library.
The school had been predicted to get a rating of “good” until the discovery during the second day of the inspection, the Birmingham Mail.
Inspectors said: “The leaflet states: ‘Today we find that the sons and daughters of Islam are under continuous attack by the forces of non-Islam.’”
It promoted the Khaleefah, which is defined as “the total rulership of Muslims over the world”.
The watchdog found the school was providing a “good” education for pupils but said safeguarding was ineffective owing to the contents of the leaflet. This resulted in Birchfield being given an “inadequate” rating.
The leaflet advertised a Muslim conference at Wembley stadium in 1994 and inspectors said it “could lead pupils to views promoting the proposed supremacy of Muslims in the world”.
Birchfield has launched a legal challenge, saying it has been a victim of Ofsted’s “draconian and inconsistent inspection practices” against faith-based independent schools.
In a statement, the school said: “The leaflet identified has no place in our teachings, curriculum or ethos. We work hard to promote fundamental British values and the rule of law at our school.
“It is simply unacceptable for Ofsted to undermine all of the hard work put in by staff and pupils when coming to wholly inaccurate judgments of schools. We continue to challenge the decision making which led to our inspection judgments and await Ofsted’s legal response.”
In the report, Ofsted inspectors said they were “confident the sentiments [in the leaflet] did not reflect the views of pupils”, but its presence in the library showed the school was not adequately protecting pupils.
The report said: “The arrangements for safeguarding are not effective. This is because of the serious nature of the inflammatory leaflet found in the school library, dating from 1994. Leaders have not made sure that pupils are protected from inflammatory and unsuitable literature. Therefore, pupils are not safe from potential radicalisation.
“School leaders could not say how the leaflet that was found got into the library, nor why it was openly displayed on a library shelf. Leaders could not say why staff had not spotted and removed the leaflet.”…..

Will the muslims be suing their ‘holy’ koran too?
Is not “the total rulership of muslims over the world” mandated by their Arab god al lah{“the BEST of deceivers” k3:54}in the koran?
“And fight them until persecution is no more and religion is for allah”
koran 2 v 193
The khaleefah requires the use of violence and terror and deception against non-muslims until ALL religions and the whole world “is for allah”:Humanity is to be subject to islam.
Do the muslims deny their own koran?

“We work hard to promote fundamental British values and the rule of law at our school.”
That can be done in normal state school so why do they need to segregate themselves from the rest of British children? I though that segregation is supposed to be a bad thing not conducive to unity or equality
Michael Copeland says
It is Islam’s doctrine of supremacy that is inflammatory.
It is basic teaching, as in any Islamic school: it is nothing aberrant..
This is the chance to expose it in a court of law.
Rarely says
The situation certainly has the potential to be very, very interesting. Consequently, I expect that someone will back down before this gets anywhere near a courtroom (almost 99 44/100% certain it will be the school board).
J D.S says
If a Muslim believes and practices what is written. In the Koran then that Muslim is a terrorist!
Those who teach little children that the words in the koran are accurate are themselves bound for hell.
LB says
A court of “law”? In the UK? Whose law exactly? My bet is on sharia, because they’ve been more adherent towards muslim law than UK law. What will most likely happen is the muslims will win the case and get millions of taxpayer money in “reparations”. Wouldn’t be the first time.
Norger says
Next time they’ll just temporarily pull all this stuff off the shelves before the inspectors come in. I wouldn’t be surprised if the school in fact did this prior to the inspection and just missed this one.
Ragdoll says
Fortunately, Ofsted does inspections without any notice, especially when they already have concerns, so they probably knew or had a good idea of the hate-filled rubbish they would find there!
keith says
I reckon your spot on with that comment. They missed one and now they are crying victim yet again.
Norger says
Although I bet the Koran is prominently displayed in the school library….
James Lincoln says
No doubt, Norger.
Just wondering how this would be “less inflammatory” than the leaflet…
Rolf Wittwer says
The attacks by non-Muslims mentioned were understandable.
In these poor Islamist indoctrination sites, only the skyblue-pink Koran is pressed into the pitiful young brains. Those who do not “sprint” are physically/psychologically “brought on course” in order to get a little closer to the long-term goal of the bloody world domination that is currently underway.
Islam and its followers can easely exist without mathematics, physics,high tech, art, philosophy, craft, geopolitics, history, biology, chemistry, engineering, languages etc.- etc.
The stoneage-lifestyle ordered by the Koran, fatwas, praying and conquering are enough for Muslims to stay on Earth.
With and without violence.
Why is there no real opposition towards this development in our civilized cultures? Is it money?
don vito says
“It promoted the Khaleefah, which is defined as “the total rulership of Muslims over the world”.” From the post above. Whether it is 700 AD or 2020 AD normative islam promotes rule of the other through jihad. Forever War, indeed.
Jayell says
“In a statement, the school said: “The leaflet identified has no place in our teachings, curriculum or ethos. We work hard to promote fundamental British values and the rule of law at our school”…….So why was the leaflet in the library? And since when did muslims ever understand anything at all about ‘fundamental British values’, which are the direct antithesis of islam? Furthermore, why do muslims keep spouting this garbage when they know that no-one believes anything that they say because they’ve tried it on too often?
By the way, quite a few schools around the UK fail their Ofsted inspections, but these schools would then normally work hard to improve matters. I’ve never heard of schools suing Ofsted when they don’t like the result, because they would respect Ofsted’s authority and not be so insufferably arrogant and insolent as to pretend they know better. But, of course, this is a muslim school, run by ‘the best of people’, who of course know more about British standards than the official British inspectorate. We all know that, don’t we?

Jayell says,
“By the way, quite a few schools around the UK fail their Ofsted inspections, but these schools would then normally work hard to improve matters…”
Absolutely true. That’s what normal non-muslim people do.
Imagine in the United States, if a medical clinic failed a Joint Commission inspection, and instead of working on fixing the deficiencies, the clinic sued the Joint Commission….

The pamphlet seems to express just normal Muslim supremacist aims to take over and impose Islam on all non-Muslims everywhere in the world, “the total rulership of Muslims over the world”. But Muslims hate the truth getting out, they want us to keep snoozing away and not waking up to their goals. And there’s that endless attempt to portray Muslims as victims, the usual Muslim paranoia, oh, yeah, the “sons and daughters of Islam are under continuous attack by non-Muslims”. If it was true, why the hell wouldn’t they be when they are aiming to take over the world, although, of course, unfortunately, the Muslims aren’t being persecuted because we non-Muslims so often buy their crap about how the poor dears are being picked on. I don’t like the wishy washy backing down from the school inspectors when they say that they are “confident the sentiments ( in the pamphlet) didn’t reflect the views of the pupils”, although I suppose, with a court case maybe coming up, they’d have to be careful for legal reasons. Sounds like a backdown from the school inspectors will be the outcome of this episode. I guess Buddhists don’t ever bother to have their own schools, (from what I see in Australia) but I’m sure that if they did, they wouldn’t have pamphlets calling for them to take over the world. Islam is neverending trouble for all non-Muslims and always has been.
James Lincoln says
tim gallagher,
Excellent post, my compliments.
Muslims have their own schools in order to indoctrinate the young into the teachings of Islam – but you knew that already.
In the United States, the “left” has its own schools from kindergarten to college. They come, complete with indoctrination into their leftist/Marxist/globalist/politically correct, etc., agenda.
And the tolerance of anything islam…
tim gallagher says
Thanks for the comment, James. I certainly notice that your comments here at Jihad Watch are intelligent and perceptive. Some the European countries seem to have gone further down the road to destruction because they have taken in more Muslims, but I do notice a sameness about things in all our western countries. We have a few of these Muslim indoctrination schools here in Australia and the issue you mention about the left wing orthodoxy being inculcated into students at the government-run schools exists out here and gets a lot of discussion. There’s this pernicious anti- the West attitude, along with the hysteria about climate change scaring the kids in school, etc. A lot of left wing, politically correct teachers I guess. I’m sure it would be the same in the USA. We had a Prime Minister out here named John Howard. He was a very successful, fairly conservative Prime Minister, who was Prime Minister from 1996 to 2007. He came up with a memorable description of the self-loathing sort of attitude of the left wingers (well, he may have borrowed it from someone, but I first heard it from him). He called it a “black arm band” view of history and of current affairs, which refers to people in sporting teams wearing black arm bands in memory of someone who has died. He was referring to the way the lefties are always apologetic for our western way of life, always take a miserable view of it, etc, you know that self-loathing they seem to have. And. of course, there always seems to be this unholy alliance between the left and barbaric islam.
James Lincoln says
Thank you for the reply tim gallagher, and best wishes.
gravenimage says
Good exchange, James and Tim.
tim gallagher says
Thanks for the comments, James, Kris and gravenimage. Kris, I’m pretty sure I’ve heard of the oh, so tolerant teachers wearing burkas before (maybe in Sweden recently as reported here at Jihad Watch) and I have certainly heard about people who speak up and disagree with the left wing crap being shoved down their throats getting into trouble. It is the left wing fascism. You have to agree with their point of view or otherwise you are a terrible human being and aren’t allowed freedom of speech. Mostly, I’ve heard that university students, who often have left wing Marxist lecturers, have to pretend that they agree with the BS they are fed (in the essays they write, etc) or otherwise they would be failed. Hopefully, more people will wake up soon, especially about Islam’s evil nature, and we will deal with Islam. If enough of the population do wake up, then they will force the politicians to end Muslim migration. I keep thinking that only keeping Muslims out of all our countries will work. I don’t believe anything else works.
IslamKills says
Same stuff was openly talked about in my Catholic school. Not one person complained. You liars know nothing of freedom of speech or liberty. You take stories like this and twist them.
gravenimage says
Wait–“IslamKills” is claiming he attended a school where Catholics were taught to violently take over the world and impose Catholicism on everyone at sword point? Why do I rather doubt that?
Norger says
We take stories like this and twist them…says “IslamKills.” Do tell, IslamKills.

UK Islamic school sues education watchdog for flagging leaflet promoting “total rulership of Muslims over the world”
………………………..
This should not surprise–in Islam no Infidel is allowed to complain about Islamic supremacism.
John says
No “Faith” about islam, a Barbaric TOTALITARIAN IDEOLOGY followed by Savages.
jca reid says
Still the UK don’t get it!! Islam is NOT about to Educate kids. It’s all about Brain-Washing them & indoctrinating them into a Fascistic Dumb-f*ck Dogma!! On youtube the English Physicist (& Atheist), Dr. Richard Dawkings went round some Faith Schools. Somehow he got into an Islamic School in Leicester, England. This one slipped the net as the Islamic Authorities in England had told Everybody NOT to cooperate. He spoke to this “Headmaster” who said we teach them English, Maths, Sciences etc. & ‘Critical Thinking’. He was in a ‘Science Class’ where this full burqa wearing ‘Science Teacher’, took the Class of mixed ages. [The girls were all burqa & niqab wearing kids]. NO science posters on the wall, NO Periodic Table Chart. They said these kids were going to grow up & be doctors, engineers, scientists, teachers etc. He asked one of the older burqa clad girls, ” What happens if we do a proper scientific experiment that proves Mohammed & the Koran wrong?” The reply, “I believe the Koran & Mohammed.” A great pity he did not have some bottles, water & salt with him to do the simple experiment that proves Mohammed’s saying wrong. “That Allah puts a barrier between Fresh & Sea Water.” So much for Critical Thinking. Most Muslims agree that a girls Education should end when they are 8years old. It is only the richer ones that can continue. The Lower Order ones are to be used as domestic chattels & then as breeders – pumping out as many kids ASAP. I’ve seen them at University. Some maybe very bright & complete the FULL degree properly, but most simply spend their time doing 1-2modules of a course per year, so their parents can get a better dowry & they start reproducing. Unis don’t mind. They get £9,000 per year for each Foreign Student. So the more the merrier. On the youtube searchbox type in – Islamic School Failure. One clip is about 9minutes long & that covers it.
Liz says
Let them sue. Use the flyer and discovery and ask them a bunch of questions.
The ideology falls apart under scrutiny. We must stop being afraid and start scrutinizing.
Anyone know if the flyer is available somewhere online?
gravenimage says
Liz, his is described as a 25-year-old leaflet, so I would not assume it is online–or if it is, that it would be easy to find.
