For a small country, it is beyond ludicrous to teach children of the same land as though they belong to irreconcilable worlds. Ethnic and religious division in education does not strengthen society, it corrodes social cohesion and leads to no benefit whatsoever. We are not inventing the wheel. Children should be taught together. There is no two-tier maths, physics, chemistry, languages, music, sports, technology... Give the kids and their parents the option of an English-language curriculum alongside their mother tongues and watch their minds broaden instead of being barricaded.
