It exists to promote and defend the religious and civil liberties of British Jewry and to promote its standing. Nearly 300 Deputies represent local communities and organisations in a democratically elected body ZKLFKLVWKHƪUVWSRUWRIFDOOIRUJRYHUQPHQWDQGRWKHUIDLWKJURXSVRQLVVXHV relating to the Jewish community. On issues of importance, such as Holocaust remembrance and education, the Board reaches out through its Deputies and its close relationship with the other organisations to the whole community to consult and to listen, ensuring that we speak with a strong and consistent voice. Most of the community’s major communal organisations have contributed to this document and are listed in Appendix 1, along with details of our consultation process. Many are also submitting their own documents. We particularly urge the Commission to consider, alongside this document, submissions from the main synagogal bodies, the Regional Representative Councils, the Scottish Council of Jewish Communities, and of course, the Charedi community, each of which bring a particular perspective.

  • Pluralist Jewish Education in the UK
    | 63 Changing the Landscape: Pluralist Jewish Education in the UK Helena Miller Introduction The ways in which the Jewish community in the UK has met the challenge of living in a pluralist society, as well as within a pluralist Jewish community, are addressed in this chapter as the changing pattern of Jewish education is explored. The development of a Jewish schooling system in the UK has reflected social, political and historical situations spanning five centuries. These developments have occurred in response to shifting perspectives within the main religious denominations in the mainstream Jewish community, as well as in response to educational, cultural and demographic changes in the UK in general, all of which impacted in different ways on Jewish schooling. Defining pluralism in the context of Jewish schools is complex and this chapter looks at what pluralism means both within a school and in the school's relationship with the wider community. In this paper the terms cross-communal and community are used in addition to the term pluralist, both by the institutions themselves in their self definition and by authors of explorations of pluralism in practice. 64 | Changing the Landscape | Helena Miller The Jewish community in the UK In order to understand the development of pluralist Jewish schools and schooling in the UK, it is important to understand the development and growth of the strands of the UK Jewish community over time. The first record of Jews living in the UK comes from more than a thousand years ago. But by the end of the 13th century the Jews were banished from Britain, to be reinstated more than 300 years later in 1656 by Oliver Cromwell, then Lord Protector of England (Fletcher-Jones, 1990).

  • SENCO Special Educational Needs Co-Ordinator
    Special Needs 1 A guide for parents and carers of Jewish children with special educational needs Compiled under the auspices of the Board of Deputies, 6 Bloomsbury Square London WC1A 2LP Special Needs 2 Acknowledgements Many people contributed to the development of this booklet in what was truly a combined effort. The production team included Sharon Bourla of Norwood Ravenswood, Ella Marks of the League of Jewish Women and the Board of Deputies, Amanda Moss from Kisharon, Sandy Patashnik from the Agency for Jewish Education, Philippa Travis from the Board of Deputies, and Marlena Schmool and Samantha Blendis of the Board. The original inspiration came from Susan Pascoe, a member of the Community Issues Divisional Board of the Board of Deputies, without her the task would never have been undertaken and she is especially to be thanked for her guidance. We are also indebted to The Ashdown Trust, The Kessler Foundation and The J E Joseph Charitable Trust for making the production possible. We thank them for their generosity and support. Special Needs 3 Preface This guide has been developed in response to a need. It aims to draw together in a ‘one-stop booklet’, information which will help parents of Jewish children with special needs. Specifically, it seeks to advise them where to go to obtain support and assistance at different stages in their children’s lives, covering both general and Jewish aspects. It has been a co- operative initiative in which the Board of Deputies, Norwood Ravenswood, Kisharon and the Agency for Jewish Education have all been involved.

  • Western Europe
    'I' •!• * * * * Western Europe GREAT BRITAIN OWARD THE END of the period under review (July 1, 1957, through June 30, T 1958) the popularity of the government headed by Prime Minister Harold Macmillan began to recover from the low point to which it had fallen during the year. The government's deflationary policies combined with an improve- ment in the terms of trade to produce a sharp rise in gold and dollar assets. At the same time, economic activity slackened, though only a few areas had noticeable unemployment. The recession in the United States during the autumn of 1957 and winter of 1958 tended to lessen confidence in the future. The international situation remained a source of concern, though it was less tense than during the Suez crisis in the fall of 1956. Within the Jewish com- munity the most noteworthy event during the year was the enthusiastic cele- bration of the tenth anniversary of the State of Israel. International Relations On July 15, 1957, Robert Carvalho, president of the Anglo-Jewish Associa- tion (AJA), stated that the Association was giving "serious consideration" to making contact with Russian Jewry. Maurice Edelman, M.P., chairman of the AJA foreign affairs committee, added that he had been in touch with the foreign secretary about the advisability of sending a delegation, but no fur- ther developments in this direction were reported during the year. Ten months later, on May 6, 1958, Edelman spoke of "Khrushchev's anxiety to bring about a new mood on Jewish affairs" and described as "often baseless and very damaging" certain "irresponsible statements on the position of Soviet Jewry" made by "an irresponsible clique." On April 19-20, 1958, Alderman Abram Moss, senior vice president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, represented British Jewry in Warsaw at the commemoration of the fifteenth anniversary of the uprising in the Warsaw Ghetto.

It argues that youth movements are key sites for the formation and transmission of communal identities into subsequent generations. It entails institutional studies of three Jewish youth organisations: the Jewish Lads’ Brigade, the Victoria Boys’ and Girls’ Club, and the Maccabi Union and is divided accordingly, with chapters devoted to each. The thesis examines the preferred identities that each club sought to impose on their members, using these identities as case studies for the wider British Jewish community.
