US EditionBritain launches review into school-related antisemitism
The review follows a doubling of classroom antisemitic incidents since October 2023 and 204 school-related cases reported in 2025, the Community Security Trust said.
- On Wednesday, Britain's government launched an independent review into anti‑Semitism in England's schools and colleges, with Bridget Phillipson, Education Minister, saying `figures are stark and clear`.
- Rising national figures — including a four per cent increase in 2025 — and data showing classroom-related incidents have doubled since before Hamas' October attack prompted the review.
- The review will examine schools' policies, incident handling, preventive measures, and how protests outside schools and wider geopolitical tensions influence behaviour, with the government saying `too many Jewish teachers who raised concerns felt that nothing was done`.
- The Community Security Trust recorded 204 school-related incidents in 2025, twice pre-2023 levels, and the government said the review aims to assess support for schools in education settings.
- Amid a global rise in attacks on Jews since Hamas' assault, the government launched the review amid that surge and rising school incidents, making the review a timely response.
