Investigations into how the Holocaust is taught in UK secondary schools have tended to focus on problems resulting from inappropriate teaching, inadequate resourcing or the allocation of insufficient time. No research has examined how aspects of the student body, such as its ethno-religious identity, might frustrate the efforts of teachers. This lack of research is troubling, for if, as has been claimed, antisemitism is spreading among the UK’s Muslim population, there has to be concern over the way the Holocaust is taught in predominantly Muslim schools. On the basis of interviews with 15 secondary school teachers, this article suggests that the concern is largely unwarranted
