Anglo-Saxons are leaders in the reform of the national state, and yesterday the Great Britain Government has unveiled a new curriculum to bring schools into the 21st century: more subjects to look at the future like global warming, design&technology, ICT, economic wellbeing ??!, some to build an identity that the family no more gives to the children, like british values and citizenship, and few subjects of what was called humanities, like geography, history and english.
There was consternation, though, that Winston Churchill and Adolf Hitler’s names had been omitted from the list of historical figures to be studied, a decision described by the Conservative MP Nicholas Soames as madness. But the QCA and the Government pointed out that study of the First and Second World Wars was compulsory and it would be impossible to teach those topics without studying Churchill and Hitler.
