- A Lubavitch school whose application form listed the only options to a question on ethnic background to be “white” has been told to revise its entry rules. The state-aided Ruth Lunzer Girls Primary School in Hackney was also told its religious criteria for allocating places was too vague. The Office of the Schools Adjudicator (OSA) partially upheld a complaint against the school, which is part of the Lubavitch Multi-Academy Trust, that was made by the National Secular Society. According to the Schools Admissions Code, the criteria used for deciding places must be “fair, clear and objective”.
- The case adjudicator, Bryan Slater, took issue with some of the requests for information on an application form published online, including one which stated: “Ethnic background: White-Orthodox Jewish/ White-British/ White-European/ White-Other”.[1]
