I’m sorry but this is not true. The depiction of Turkey by the french media is just false. This is NOT something normal.

In fact, for me, the Turkish education system works better than the French education.

And Islam is not part of the education at school in Turkey.

School in Turkey is about actually learning and carring about each other.

(I am a Turkish-French. I live in both coutries.)

What is not normal about the parent said ? That jihad is now part of the curriculum and evolution is not ? Not a lie, if you don't like french media you can check turkish sources [1]. Turkish academics agree that it is not a lie [2].

According to my turkish friends in the past the quality of education was quite good but has been steadily going down [5] thanks to the ruling party promoting religious schools for many years [3]. Islam _is_ part of education at school in Turkey [4].
