Good grief.

Iran is almost the least of the UK's problems.

I think they should stop teaching reading and writing because sometime in the future each of these kids will read or write something that will offend someone else.

PC run amuck.

As far as I know this is not an Onion-like article. Please, someone, prove me wrong.

Political Correctness in the United Kingdom seems to run about 2-5 years ahead of here, so expect to see this bull$hit here in a short time. The NEA, ACLU, Media, NAMBLA, NOW, DNC, CAIR are all on the same page, working towards socialism/communism in the USA.

They should drop teaching math, as it will teach logical thinking and then they will want to learn about the other suubjects.

As a matter of fact they should just cancel shchool all together, they are all idiots already.

The biggest problem they have is the same one they had at the beginning of WWII,.......no guns. This time I don't think Americans citizens will be shipping their rifles to Briton. All the problems we attract for ourselves can be solved if we keep the Second Amendment. They, however are defenseless. I was very disappointed in the Aussies giving up their God given rights. I've always been intrigued by the insanity of volunteering to be a slave. It has something to do with self loathing. I can just hear the liberals all agreeing that somehow we've out grown this and we are beyond violence, and it must be "different now. They will live long enough to wittiness their children's heads being sawed off with a dull pocket knife and wonder how this could be in a "civilized" world.

We have once again voted people into office that has in their genetic makeup, an aversion to freedom, self defense, and common sense. They haven't been in power 3 months and the gun bans are stacking up to be voted on. I don't want to seem too harsh on the Brit's and Aussies when we did the same thing. A .308 165gn BTHP in the hands of the citizenry can solve many problems very quickly.

The way the slave trade is taught can lead white children - as well as black pupils - to feel alienated, according to the study by the Historical Association.

Some teachers have even dropped the Holocaust completely from lessons over fears that Muslim pupils might express anti-Semitic reactions in class.

This line is about where I stopped reading. School isn't supposed to be about feelings, it's supposed to be about reason, logic, and facts. Slavery is bad, but it's still going on in Africa which suggests maybe, just maybe, whitey is not the root of all evil. The Crusades were nothing more than a delayed reaction by Christian Europe to the Jihad of the Arabs.

As far as the Muslim students cheering for the Holocaust, there is a place for them since Hell is not an immediate option. They can be placed on suspension or expelled, then mommy and daddy to can send them to a madrassa in Pakistan for a "proper" Muslim education in Arab supremacy and Jihad./rant off

Close the schools.
They might upset someone.

[teacherwoes]

Does this mean they can stop teaching global warming because it may offend those who don't believe in it?

[Malesherbes]

Calculus will soon be dropped because it makes the kids feel uncomfortable.

And then they're gonna have a Farenheit 451 style "Book BBQ".

My two favorite books from the high school reading list are comming true (the other being Orwell's "1984"). Amazing.
