'Modern Slavery': With Little Enforcement, Israeli Trafficking in Foreign Workers Continues
Despite victories against sex trafficking, workers are suffering in farming, construction and caregiving, but the police and other agencies have come up short in both identification and enforcement
A random error? That’s far from the truth. A Haaretz investigation has found that the Tel Aviv-Jaffa Municipality is sending hundreds of children of asylum seekers and migrant workers to schools designated just for them, in which there are no Israeli children. The educational standards there are often different too. Nahum, now in third grade, still doesn’t know how to read and write.
Keshet is one of two new schools on dreary Hamasger Street. Next to it is the Gvanim School. They are similar in size and appearance and located in an area filled mainly with automotive garages and offices. It is not exactly a residential area. This is important considering that geographic distance from the child’s home is supposed to be the main criterion in the city’s school registration zones. Thus these two schools have become a different type of registration zone. What counts is not the distance from home, but the distance from a blue Israeli ID card.
Official figures from the municipality, reported here for the first time, paint a clear picture: 2,228 out of 2,433 children of asylum seekers and migrants (91.5 percent) in elementary school attend schools that are for foreigners only. The 205 others are integrated with Israeli children in seven elementary schools in their neighborhoods, with their number falling within “the permitted quota.”
According to the city’s education administration, the ratio of foreign children in a school may not exceed 30 percent of the student body (in keeping with the Education Ministry’s policy in other cases of integration). If that quota has already been met, the foreign child is likely on his or her way to one of the designated schools. For the 450 Israeli schoolchildren who live in the Hatikva, Neveh Sha’anan and Shapira neighborhoods, the result would be different even if they encountered the same situation. They would only hear about Gvanim (“Shadings”) and Keshet (“Rainbow”) in art classes.
