מה קרה
Researchers from the Menor Center reveal that Israeli religious state schools receive on average 10,000 shekels more per student annually than secular state schools, a gap increasing over the past decade. The Ministry of Education admits the disparity but attributes it to unique religious studies, which only partially explains the difference. Additional funding formulas favor smaller religious schools, further widening the gap. The Menor Center is petitioning the Supreme Court and proposing new budget formulas to increase support for secular schools and address systemic discrimination.
