I'm all for integration, but the extra money this must be costing would be extremely large?

Imminence, the quality or condition of being about to occur.
Immense, extremely large; huge.

The most depressing thing for me is seeing those young girls in the picture wearing the headscarf - for what purpose!?

English should quite definitely be one of, if not the language they're taught in imo

I'm all for this kind of school, provided at least 50% of the day is spent teaching the kids there how to read and write English!

It doesnt actually say anywhere that they dont speak english, or that the kids are taught in a foreign language. Typical Scoobynet. Everyone believing everything they read in the papers, but too stupid to think for themselves.

maybe you should read into it before commenting

requires 28 teaching assistants, and who pays for them i wonder???

if they all spoke english there would be no need for 28 assistants

immigration is fine if they add something to the community, unfortunately a lot (not all) are only in the uk to get something for nothing using the benefits system.

you cant blame them as its our government that has caused it with its stupid handouts to everyone and anyone.

Exactly! I was born here, worked and never claimed anything since i left school. When i was off work due to an illness i had to fight for £30 a week to help pay my rent (i was only off for 6weeks). Then you see people coming over and claiming so much money, that i wouldnt have a chance of getting. im not racist, im all for people coming over to find work etc.. but the system sucks!

I now know a few people who have emigrated to france. Their children went to French schools, primary and secondary.

They WERE given cram lessons in basic French, but ALL other lessons were in French, no extra help being given.

We, on the other hand..........

And it's the same in everyday life: over here, your bank/council/utility provider etc will provide you with all your documentation in YOUR language.

In France, it's in very heavy French...tough luck.
And misunderstand....your problem. You owe THEM money, better pay it back quick, or bailiffs are involved. They owe you money? Well, you've seen the "Gallic shrug" have you?

So who's got it right?

For the immigrants, we have.
For the French, THEY have.

Lincolnshire. Ethnicity 98.5% white (Wikipedia).

How can you possibly have an informed opinion on this?

That's in the county as a whole. The same would be said of North Lincs...but the TOWNS are a different story, ours, for example has a very large % of Asians.

And I defy you to hear English spoken on the streets midweek, or in the town supermarkets, they are both full of all those eastern Europeans who come here to work...but aren't, unless they are ALL on nights
