Court strengthens right to Islamic instruction – what Mallorca now must organize in practice

Answer

Who pays for Islamic instruction in Mallorca’s public schools?

That is one of the main open questions. The cost could come from the general education budget, from targeted support by the Balearic government, or from a mix of public funding sources. For Mallorca, the challenge is finding a model that does not weaken other school services while still making the right effective.
