Various of photos of young Avihay Marciano when he was a student in the ultra-Orthodox education system 2. Marciano walking on university campus 3. Marciano seated at computer 4. SOUNDBITE (Hebrew) Avihay Marciano: "When I left the army, at the age of 22-and-a-half, or 23, I looked at myself and said what am I going to do with my life? I said one moment, I cannot access tools for ultra-Orthodox students, the programs for ultra-Orthodox adults to complete their studies, that does not apply to me. On the secular side, I have nothing. I sat years in a Jewish seminary, I studied day and night, and at the end of the day, I left empty-handed." 5. Various of Marciano studying at university 6. SOUNDBITE (Hebrew) Avihay Marciano: "I personally feel like the state has abandoned us. There is no other way to describe it. There is no way to pretty it up. When other citizens, other children get 12 hours of studies a day and standardised tests and all that, ultra-Orthodox children don't even get half of that." AP TELEVISION - AP CLIENTS ONLY Jerusalem - 14 December 2015 7. Various of ultra-Orthodox neighbourhood with men and women walking in street, signs addressed to groups of tourists and female visitors requesting 'modesty' in dress 8. Ultra-Orthodox activist Shmuel Poppenheim speaking to reporter 9. SOUNDBITE (Hebrew) Shmuel Poppenheim, Ultra-Orthodox activist: "We are saying that we are teaching values, a conservative way of life, tools that will bring a person to the heights of traditional Jewish morals and values. And all of a sudden, there is a public, a large community of people that is saying that the values we are talking about do not help them." 10. Various of of ultra-Orthodox men and women walking in street AP TELEVISION - AP CLIENTS ONLY Jerusalem - 16 December 2015 10. SOUNDBITE (English) Yedidia Stern, expert on religion and state: "Since they are not prepared for life, and since they do have the support of the family, and the support of their community, and since usually they do not have any other alternative community in Israel, their life is really under pressure. They have to start not from zero but from minus. And I think the Israeli society should help them find their way in their new community." 11. Stern in library 12. SOUNDBITE (English) Yedidia Stern, expert on religion and state: "If we leave the situation as it is, when these people are not being educated, and are not contributing enough to Israeli security and to Israeli society, and to Israeli economy, we are facing quite a problem in the near future." 13. Stern reading STORYLINE When, as a young man, Avihay Marciano left the ultra-Orthodox community where he was raised, he did not know how to use a computer or speak English and had only elementary maths skills. Now, Marciano and 50 others who left the insular ultra-Orthodox community are suing the state, claiming they were denied a basic education and left lagging far behind secular Israelis. The case has shone a light on Israel's separate education system for the ultra-Orthodox, which experts say is keeping a sizeable chunk of Israelis from integrating into the workforce and is a ticking time bomb for the country's long-term economic health. "The state has abandoned us," said Marciano, 26. "I studied day and night, and at the end of the day I left empty-handed." Experts have long warned that a separate education system and the absence of the ultra-Orthodox in the workforce threaten Israel's long-term economic prospects.
