More details from petition creator

We write further to the article in the Evening Standard and other papers that the Saudi-faith school King Fahd Academy in London is using textbooks produced by the Saudi Ministry of Education which describe Jews as “monkeys” and Christians as “pigs”. They ask pupils to list the repugnant characteristics of Jews. The books are very offensive to Christians, Jews and Muslims. The books have been taught at the school since September 2005 and the Ofsted inspection did not uncover them in March 2006.
