Second Class: Discrimination Against Palestinian Arab Children in Israel's Schools

Submitted by crinadmin on

Summary: This report is based on Human Rights
Watch investigations at twenty-six
Arab and Jewish schools and on
nationwide statistics compiled by the
Israeli government. It shows that in
virtually every respect, Palestinian
Arab children get an education
inferior to that of Jewish children,
and their relatively poor performance
in school reflects this.
