I'm a little confused. Apparently "hundreds" of children are being withdrawn, but closer reading of this and two other articles reveals, amidst all the speculation, two actual substantiated facts: 20 children were withdrawn from rehearsals for a Christmas musical, and one child has been permanently removed from a scheme to learn violin or cello, for reasons unspecified. If this is indeed an issue for up to 10% of Muslim families, then concrete evidence is rather thinner on the ground than might be expected.
