Hi, first let me say something: THIS THREAD IS NOT ABOUT RELIGION! Do not start a religious debate here please. This is a simple question for anyone who knows the answer. If you want to discuss religion, do it on another site, such topics are not allowed here.
Now - I read an article here and I want to ask - what does it exactly mean?
"...to complete a unit on the history of Islam."
"...the addition of a Muslim-specific component after revisions were made..."
I'm not really familiar with british school system terminology, so what I'm asking is - will they focus a couple of lessons of History or Social Studies or something on Islam and have a written test, or will it be a subject on its own with, say, a lesson a week? I'm presuming the former (which I would've though was already taught, but just not mandatory) but the outcry seems like it's the latter.
