The alternatives seem to be to stick with a failing status quo or make common cause with its religious enemy. The third alternative, of course, is to change the status quo. Not an easy alternative, of course, but none of them are. You can get educated citizens out of a mix of secular (there will be some) schools and religious schools, or end up with savages. Clearly there are a fair number of students emerging from public schools that are neither uneducated nor savage. Also clearly, there are major problems with the system. Are the problems major enough that the only possible solution is to undermine a cornerstone of the republic's fundamental law? A matter of opinion, I suppose.
