Spain: Schools initiate Islamic studies in curricula

By: Anjum Kermani

MADRID, Spain: Spanish schools have introduced with the beginning of 2005 Islam Studies in the curriculum of a number of their schools particularly those in large cities.

The step has been taken in the framework of a new law known as “the education reform law,” which was passed by the new Socialist Government in 2004.

Muslim children go to a number of these urban schools, among them Barcelona (northeast of Spain) and the capital Madrid plus other smaller cities.

The basic course only focus on the basics of Islam and general principles and practices, bearing in mind that the lessons given would include not only Muslim students, but all the students in a given school.
