Public Prosecution Service demands dismissal of ‘poorly functioning’ board of Islamic schools in Amsterdam | Domestic

The Public Prosecution Service submitted a petition to the court in Amsterdam on Friday. The foundation manages the three As-Siddieq schools in Amsterdam. There are approximately eleven hundred students at these primary schools.

The Public Prosecution Service accuses the board members of not having made any improvements after several warnings from the ministry. For that reason, outgoing education minister Mariëlle Paul decided two weeks ago to further reduce the budget for schools. According to the minister, the board has proven time and again that it does not function properly.

According to the Public Prosecution Service, the conflict between the minister and the board members threatens to cause the school foundation to go bankrupt in the short term. This is not in the interests of the students and that is why, according to the Public Prosecution Service, a new board should be established.
