Anti-Semitism in UK schools

e-class Britain.

The survey found that 51 percent of Jewish teachers had experienced anti-Semitism in their schools since May 2023. A total of 44 per cent reported swastika graffiti appearing at their school since May 2023, and 39 per cent have witnessed or been subject to Nazi-related comments.

Jewish teaching staff reported being told “it’s not racist to say Jews are rich – it’s just a fact”, while others have faced assumptions that they are Israeli and not British citizens.

And the NASUWT response?

The rise in the abuse is being fuelled by “dangerous” rhetoric from the far-Right and misinformation on social media, according to Matt Wrack, the acting NASUWT general secretary.

How blind must you be to see this as a far-Right issue? The people fomenting Jew hatred now are so clearly from the left-Islam alliance that only a union official – still living somewhere round the 1970s and wilfully determined to stick to the old slogans – could come out with this nonsense. The union problem in a nutshell.

Update. From the JC – Teachers’ union accused of skewing survey to ignore antisemitism on the far left:

Britain’s second-largest teaching union has been accused of publishing a antisemitism survey that highlights right-wing hate while ignoring Israel-related incidents.

Critics also claim that the release of the allegedly skewed survey was timed to boost the profile of a far-left leadership candidate ahead of a critical election.

The survey was conducted in May 2024 but was only released on July 1, 2025, amid a contentious second attempt by the National Association of Schoolmasters Union of Women Teachers (NASUWT) to elect pro-Corbyn firebrand Matt Wrack as general secretary.
