Andrés Pedreño, regional deputy, explained that the Islamic handkerchief is part of the exercise of fundamental rights set out in the Constitution.
Therefore, he asks the counselor Adela Martínez-Cachá, to guarantee that the school in Cruz de Piedra de Jumilla will respect this girl for the principle of non-discrimination in education.
We can consider that it is not admissible that the arranged schools have in their internal regulations these discriminations for religious reasons.
Pedreño has told that Martínez Cachá must listen to what the NGOs have already put on the table without Racism, Murcia Acoge, the Federation of African Associations of Murcia and the NGO Coordinator of the Region of Murcia.
The use of hijab by female students and teachers "is part of two fundamental rights constitutionally recognized to all individuals, freedom of conscience and the right to own image."
That is why, said the deputy of Podemos, these democratic principles and values ​​must be respected and the girl "must have freedom to wear the Islamic headscarf in teaching centers." In the absence of specific state legislation, its limitation or prohibition can only be determined judicially, after verifying the jurisdictional body, in response to the specific circumstances, the incompatibility of the symbol with public order, respect for the rights of the other members of the educational community or the proper functioning of the public service ".
For its part, the Secretary of Social Rights of the Region of Murcia, María Marín, recalled that Article 16 of the Spanish Constitution expressly states that "ideological, religious and religious freedom must be guaranteed. the time to manifest and express freely beliefs and ideologies, without forgetting that the right to own image of article 18 allows individuals to freely shape their physical or external appearance ".
