Here are some pictures of the Ahwazi Arab population in Iran. Reading their signs, you could see the pride of being native speakers in Arabic and the demand to have Arabic as the teaching language in schools. Permitting teaching in a language other than Farsi is guaranteed under the Iranian constitution, although the relevant Article in the constitution (see it below) was completely ignored by the executive branch of the Iranian government.
Article 15 of Iran's Constitution states:
"The official language and script of Iran, the lingua franca of its people, is Farsi. Official documents, correspondence, and texts, as well as text-books, must be in this language and script. However, the use of regional and tribal languages in the press and mass media, as well as for teaching of their literature in schools, is allowed in addition to Farsi".
