45,000 Palestinian students in East Jerusalem now required to study Israeli curriculum

LONDON: Beginning with the start of the new school year on Tuesday, about 45,000 Palestinian students in East Jerusalem starting their first or seventh grades will be re required to study the Israeli curriculum. It is the first time this has happened since Israel occupied the city in 1967. Critics say that since 2018 the Israeli government has incentivized schools to adopt its curriculum by promising funding for education in Palestinian areas, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported.
