What Are They Teaching The Children? – Book

£11.00

VfJUK’s important new book examining the ideological reframing of education in the UK, with its erosion of human rights and attendant effects on children and family life.

Epidemic level STIs among teenagers; Teen pregnancy and abortion;
Porn addiction; Unprecedented rates of mental illness; Inability to form and sustain relationships … the list goes on and on!

Over the last years the UK has been witness to unprecedented cultural, social and political change as result of changing attitudes towards sexuality and gender, and the combined but often conflicting pressures of secularism and multiculturalism.

Education has reflected this shift, with the teaching of many once traditional values increasingly proscribed by law. But the policy of giving ever more information without any kind of moral frame has been a spectacular failure, and with the disintegration of what are now branded repressive values, we face a growing crisis that affects the physical, mental and emotional welfare of our young.

Topics covered include:

• What is ‘education’? What, how and why do we teach our young?
• How has education evolved in different societies, and what are the implications for us today?
• What is the role of the family in education?
• How does current education policy fit with the basic human rights of freedom of conscience, belief, and speech?
• How is education being subjected to ideological pressure?
• Detailed analysis of the impact of SRE (Sex and Relationship Education) and so-called ‘inclusivity’ on children and young people.
