A Swedish-Arabic school in Uppsala has had its state funding withdrawn after failing to correct flaws highlighted by a series of inspections over the last twelve months.In February 2004 the Swedish National Agency for Education began investigating the Manar Al-Houda Swedish-Arabic school and a report released last June revealed that “the pupils did not receive an education…comparable to that provided by a comprehensive school”.
A week after Swedish Radio created a stir by suggesting wealthy Saudi “fundamentalists” are buying influence in Sweden’s Muslim schools and community organisations, Swedish Television noted that the school was criticised for referring only to Islam in its religious education.
