(NL Times) Education Minister Dennis Wiersma stands by his decision that the board of the Islamic School Amsterdam (ISA) must resign because of mismanagement, which he announced at the end of August. He has not reconsidered his decision after the ISA’s response.
“I had, and have no confidence in a sustainable repair of the many deficiencies found,” the minister wrote in a letter to the Tweede Kamer. In the past 10 years, nine inspection reports have been issued into the administrative actions of the organization. According to Wiersma, this shows that “these board members are not capable of properly running a school.”
The board must resign by May 2023 at the latest.
