Do you want to argue that Muslim values are on par with Christian-Western values?

"Chrisitian-Western"? When you started out it was "Judeo Christian." What happened to the jews? Does that mean we don't get Yom Kipper off?

I don't know enough about moslems (other than I know I don't like them) to know what their values are and I don't care as long as their kids do well in school.

I believe in Western values. I oppose dominance of barbaric cultures in our societies. If you think that's bigotry, your problem.

over here we think America has Western values and UK is and always has been barbaric. Like my Daddy always told me, "When it comes to women and horses always check their teeth."

the idea is to teach kids, not to make them submit to the majority religion

Have you seen the media reports in the U.K. where the Muslim immigrants are demanding that fundamental Islam be taught to all students in public schools including daily prayers. Effectively turning the schools into Madrasas - even for non-Islamic students. The Muslims say that western secular education impugns on their rights to educate their children in line with their beliefs and vision of the world - and public schools must conform to their requirements.

Allowing minority religions to dictate the school schedules, test dates, curriculum, and the insertion of religion into the classroom is a slippery slope.

Normal course of action once the Muslim population gains critical mass. As their numbers increase their demands grow exponentially.

yes it is, but the same could be said for majority religions

Keep in mind that in most western (i.e. "Christian") countries the educational standards state that no religion should be in the classroom and the agenda should be purely secular.
