Talmud Torah Tashbar
Not to be confused with the Manchester based Tashbar Manchester formerly known as Talmud Torah Tashbar (charity)
Talmud Torah Tashbar was a Belz school run by Talmud Torah Tashbar London Limited.
Ordered to close
- An unregistered Haredi Jewish school shut down after its pupils were taught “cultural and ethnic insularity” is continuing to operate under a different guise, it appears. Recently taken photographs seen by the Hackney Citizen show groups of school age boys arriving regularly by minibus at premises formerly used by the now defunct Talmud Torah Tashbar school in Stamford Hill.
- The school was officially shut by the government in January this year and was dissolved as a company in the same month. However, three months later the Department for Education (DfE) opened an investigation to find whether the school had in fact closed. Now it has emerged this probe is still ongoing seven months on – suggesting the government suspects the school is in effect still operating in defiance of its order.[1]
