UK to set school exams around Ramadan

[robvalue]

My wife said, "They have to do the Ramadan thing."

I said, "No they don't."

She said, "If they don't, they'll [get negative consequences from their family]."

If this is true, this is a matter for the police I would say. Forcing your child to not eat regularly or else face consequences is not OK just because it's your religion. I'm sure this isn't the case in most Muslim families in the UK. I'd love to think it's not the case in any. But I don't know.
