A newspaper writes about an English teacher, who has a conflict at the secondary school, where he works in Rijswijk. The teacher has asked for a room where he can pray towards Mecca several times a day during breaks, from his Islamic faith. However, at the end of October, he was called on by his team leader with the message that he was not allowed to pray at the school. As a result, the mutual working relationship has become disrupted and he resigns himself from the Christmas holidays. The students and parents do not understand and start a support page on social media.
