Islamic Ministry sends letter to president over co-education

The Ministry of Islamic Affairs has sent a letter to the President criticising Education Minister Dr Mustafa Luthfy for introducing co-education.

The Education Ministry has argued that all schools apart from four are already co-educational.

In the letter, the Ministry claimed that Maldivian educational policies were intended “to repel students away from the creed of Islam.”

Miadhu reported that 40 parents and guardians of students protested outside the President’s residence over the weekend.
