That's got to be worth an "Oh Dear".

I agree, it is a bit w@nk. Not really sure what "secure values and beliefs" are supposed to be ...

I'd be worried if I was relying on the school to teach 11-14 years olds this however, and I don't personally remember attending a 'right and wrong' class ...

What a load of PC bollox.

Next we're going to be told that the truth only comes out of the mouths of babes.

One man's right is another man's wrong.

What a bunch of old tosh unless they're going to teach children what their real cultural heritage is....it makes me want to go and show some of these people what my right looks like...

This PC nonsense is a direct result of teachers (and most recently parents too) not being allowed to discipline kids.

Teacher : Johnny please don't stab Timmy in the chest, it's not nice.

Johnny : Who asked you ... ffcuk off.

Teacher : Now now Johnny, don't use that language or I'll .... well never mind ... just don't do it.

Johnny : I told you to ffcuk off.

Teacher : Do you want me to report you to the headmaster ?

Johnny : Oh and what the ffcuk is he going do about it. Now just ffcuk off.

The future for our kids under NL

Under draft proposals teachers will no longer teach right from wrong or Britain's 'cultural heritige' . Great

Soon enough, Scottish pupils will be learning more about England's heritage and values than English pupils. I'm not laughing.

"It also identifies the need for young people who 'challenge injustice, are committed to human rights and strive to live peaceably with others.'"

That's nice then...

And that just means the ritualistic screening of 'Braveheart', that well researched documentary that has defined modern Scottish identity.

Meanwhile, in a classroom somewhere in England....

"Now, hands up who can speak English...? Anyone...? "

P.S This made me laugh the other day - a Czech friend said 'we don't like the Poles'. When I asked 'why?', she said 'we can't find work as they are everywhere'.
