Anti terror powers drawn up amid concern at British Muslims joining ISIS including Mohammed Emwazi , the 26-year-old known as ‘ Jihadi John ’ Sweeping new anti-terror powers will be introduced this week – including powers to stop ‘ jihadi brides ’ boarding planes and a ban on extremists working with children . The terror proposals are being drawn up by the Home Office amid growing concerns at the threat posed by home-grown fanatics . A Government counter-terror strategy would also lead to closer scrutiny of Sharia courts operating in the UK , and job centres would be required to help identify people potentially at risk of being radicalised . The raft of new measures were revealed in a leaked document published by the Sunday Telegraph , which calls on the government to be ‘ more assertive ’ in challenging extremism . It has been drawn up in the wake of worrying revelations about British Muslims going overseas to join ISIS including Mohammed Emwazi , the 26-year-old known as ‘ Jihadi John ’ . Education Secretary Nicky Morgan admitted she was ‘ concerned ’ about what might be being taught in some schools . She told Murnaghan on Sky News : ‘ I ’ m not going to comment on what is a leaked document , but I think as Education Secretary it would be right for me to say I am of course concerned about what might be taught in some of our schools . ‘ And we have since last year required all schools to actively promote these fundamental British values so that our education system is opening up young minds , it is not closing them down . ‘ And I think the messages that young people receive , whether it ’ s in school or outside school , are very , very important. ’ The new strategy has not been signed off by ministers , and some of the measures could be expected to raise objections among Liberal Democrats if they are deemed to infringe civil liberties . It could lead to changes in the rules granting citizenship to encourage new arrivals to embrace ‘ British values ’ . It also proposes a penalties scheme to encourage people on benefits to learn English . Schoolgirls Amira Abase , Kadiza Sultana and Shamima Begum left the UK for Turkey to make their way to Syria to join ISIS . The document states that ‘ in the past , there has been a risk that the Government sends an ambivalent and dangerous message - that it does n't really matter if you do n't believe in democracy ’ . It adds : ‘ We need to stand up and be more assertive in promoting our values and challenging the extremists who fundamentally oppose them. ’ ‘ This will include explaining our foreign policy ( and ) promoting mainstream voices supporting the quiet majority in all communities who oppose extremism. ’ The Home Office concluded that the so-called ‘ Trojan Horse plot ’ involving the infiltration of schools by extremists in the Midlands , was ‘ not an isolated example of schools where extreme views became prevalent ’ . And it warned that universities , local councils and charities are vulnerable to ‘ entryism ’ whereby extremists deliberately secure jobs in particular institutions in order to promote their values . Home Secretary Theresa May wants to push through new anti-terror powers to stop British Muslims being radicalised . Three East London schoolgirls are still unaccounted for after leaving the UK heading for Syria . Shamima Begum and Amira Abase , both 15 , and Kadiza Sultana , 16 , are thought to have been groomed by extremists using social media sites . Around 700 British Muslims are reported to have travelled to Syria to fight with Islamic State , and several hundred have returned to Britain . Last month the Washington Post uncovered the identity of ‘ Jihadi John ’ – the terrorist seen in multiple propaganda beheading videos featuring brutal murders of Western hostages . Last week the Mail revealed the staggering cost of benefits for Emwazi , a university graduate radicalised in London , and his family . It is thought that housing him and his relatives in affluent parts of London has cost taxpayers up to £400,000 .
New anti - terror proposals are being drawn up by the Home government . Ministers want closer scrutiny of Sharia courts operating in the country .
