Thanks for your insight as a vegan parent, and a teacher!

School syllabus can work both ways, 99% of the time they're written for the students benefit. The remaining time is to push propaganda. I can think of one particular place which I won't name here in case they stupidly sue me... National Security Law is embedded in the curriculum in recent years and every teacher has to incorporate it in their lesson plan regardless. This, amongst other factors has led to a flow of teachers leaving, and those remaining are forced to do as told. I know a maths teacher was scratching her head on how the hell could she incorporate national security law in maths lessons for 15 year olds!!?
