'Nothing going on in classrooms has to do with education': Dr Kevin Donnelly

ACU Senior Research Fellow Dr Kevin Donnelly says "nothing that’s going on in the classroom has anything to do with education" with disciplines taught to young students being influenced by leftist, socialist activism.

Mr Donnelly said "it is all about indoctrination in schools" after it was revealed primary school students were being urged to write activist letters and lecture their parents on climate change in a new guide issued by the Primary English Teaching Association of Australia.

"A lot of parents wouldn’t recognise what’s happening in the classroom," he said.
