To think I should be able to express a desire to not want to send my child to the local school which has more than 95% asian children and not be called a racist!

The school is a few minutes walk away from me but I have no intention of sending my children there. Most classes there isn't a single white child in it especially the younger end of the school. The other nearest school is about a 25 minute walk away. It has a 50% mix have absolutely no problem with that whatsoever. I have asian neighbours and even they don't even send their Reception child to the local school. Told my hairdresser that I don't want to send my child to x school and she said "thats a bit racist!" Told my neighbour and she too was shocked and said I am probably the least racist person she knows!

Grag how do you know the kids will be non-british? There are many Asian communities that have been here for 60 odd years, so children, parents and in some cases grandparents would be British born, so language will not be an issue. Some will speak exclusively English.

If you mean non white at least have the courage of your racist convictions and say so.

It depends why you dont want your child to go there. If the school is shit, and happens to be mainly Asian, then its because the school is shit, not because of the colour/race/religion whatever of the pupils.

If it is because they are Asian, then seriously consider not sending them to a school with a high proportion of white working class boys. Apparently, they perform worse in exams these days.
