Sydney teacher says Muslim pupils wore ISIS shirts to school, waved terrorist flags

‘It was scary for me and the other students’: Sydney teacher says Muslim pupils as young as 10 wore ISIS shirts to school, waved terrorist flags and circled around her reciting the Koran
  • A primary school teacher in Sydney’s west has described radicalisation of boys 
  • The woman told Mark Latham’s Outsiders program how they wore ISIS shirts
  • The disturbing behaviour occurred in 2014 as ISIS gained territory in Iraq, Syria
  • She said their behaviour worsened after watching the ABC’s Behind The News

A primary school teacher in Sydney’s west has spoken of how radicalised Muslim boys wore ISIS shirts to class and circled around her menacingly reciting the Koran.

The woman, known by the pseudonym of Mrs A, told former federal Labor leader Mark Latham about the horror of being intimidated by students aged between 10 and 13.

‘I had students coming into class flying flags from overseas, be it the Syrian flag and possibly the ISIS flag. It looked to me like the ISIS flag,’ she told the Mark Latham Outsiders program.

‘There was one occasion where a couple of boys had come to school wearing T-shirts that appeared to have the ISIS flag wording.’

On another occasion, a group of students circled her against a wall and began reciting the Koran, she claimed.

‘That was quite scary and it wasn’t only scary for me but it was also quite intimidating for the other students,’ she said.

‘The other students were quite frightened, non-Islamic and Islamic students.’

The incidents, involving students in Years 5 and 6, occurred in 2014 as ISIS gained territory in Iraq and Syria.

The teacher, who has taught in the same area for the past decade, also endured students making threats to her with throat slitting gestures.

‘Sometimes they would even make comments, “I can do this to you”,’ she said, demonstrating the intimidating finger movement.

She added that some students would ‘constantly make threats to behead’ her in class.

A spokesman for the Department of Education confirmed to Daily Mail Australia on Thursday the incidents she described had taken place.

The teacher said the students’ behaviour worsened after they had watched the ABC’s children’s current affairs program Behind The News.

‘We would watch some programs at school, one of them being the ABC Behind The News program, which tended to have a bit of a sympathetic voice towards ISIS,’ she said.

‘If there was a segment about ISIS, or something to do with Islam, their behaviour seemed to have heightened. So I actually stopped watching it altogether.’

However, an ABC spokesman denounced the claim about Behind The News.

‘Any such claim would be nonsensical and offensive,’ he told Daily Mail Australia.

The teacher described how schoolboys brought ISIS flags and shirts to schoolboy after the Islamist terror group rampaged through Syria (city of Raqqa pictured) in 2014

  1. You don’t need to be a teacher to see what is happening.
    I pulled my daughter out of her primary school at Punchbowl and sent her to a independent school as she was scared so much about the behaviour of Islamic kids (The girls are just as bad if not worse) she used ever excuse not to get up and go to school.
    Most of the teachers were either scared or pressured from above to turn a blind eye in regards to the Islamic kids behaviour. Talking to other Australia parents most of whom have also moved their kids out, some of the teachers and admin staff have been threatened by elder siblings or parents of these kids to let them do what they want and when they want to do it, to not get in the way of the radicalisation or any thing else involving the Islamic faith. Female teachers are treated less than dogs and Anglo or other non Muslim children walk around with targets on their backs. Letting these junior terrorists in training get away with the intimidation and degree of wanton persecution of any other kids not of the Islamic faith is paramount to one of the biggest failures of the NSW education department. how can you learn is both the teachers and the non Muslim kid need to watch their backs all the time?

    Ah so that’s it then. Mrs A, in relating her story, was obviously engaging in hate speech wasn’t she.

    1. The “Australian Bullshit Consortium” (ABC) is not only nonsensical and offensive, but a disgrace and a blight on Australian in general. It should be defunded immediately and made to make it on its own like the rest of the commercial media. Only problem is that it is worse than TEN and we all know how they are travelling.
