The 大象传媒 has been given a rare insight into the work of Sharia courts in the Midlands, and how they operate. Sharia is the basic set of laws that govern the Islamic faith, and in other parts of the world they are used to decide anything from criminal matters to civil proceedings. But Sharia is not recognised in UK law, and therefore is generally used here to solve personal disputes among Muslims. In the UK, Sharia law applies only to Muslims - and is often used to arbitrate disputes over marriage and inheritance.
Also, as the well known advert used to say: those who can, teach. But it would seem in recent years those who could teach, prefer to chase jobs with better pay. There is currently around a 10% shortfall in applicants for both English and Maths, and despite a national target to recruit 1200 new design teachers, just 550 were found. Well a new teacher training project in Leicester is offering 拢30,000 bursaries to attract new people to the profession. It's based in Rushey Mead school and has over 30 trainees - many of whom have left their careers to teach in the classroom.
And, taxi drivers in Leicester are threatening to stage a series of "go slow" protests in response to new rules that they say unfairly punish them, and threaten their livelihoods. Leicester City Council is set to bring in the 'Driver Penalty Point Scheme' from December, which aims to closely monitor the behaviour of cabbies. But its something that the RMT Union claims is another layer of "unnecessary bureaucratic intervention", and tars them with the same brush as criminals.
