School curriculums in two Australian states are being overhauled by far-left education system bureaucrats, with South Australian students set to be indoctrinated against controversial Muslim influencer Andrew Tate, while kindergarten children in New South Wales will learn about sexual consent.
South Australian schools will restructure their curriculum early next year with the help of an expert panel that will collaborate with students and parents due to unproven claims by left-wing politicians that Tate’s views on masculinity are having a negative effect on young children, the Advertiser reported.
Education Minister Blair Boyer said Tate had a “huge reach” on social media and claimed algorithms were amplifying his views to teenagers.
“I’ve spoken to staff and said they’re seeing it in Year 5 students. The behaviours and habits and things that you learn when you’re young, at primary school and high school, you carry with you,” he said.
In New South Wales significant radical leftist curriculum changes are now in the “consultation and release stage” and expected to come into effect in the classroom in 2027, Sky News Australia reported.
The changes include the teaching of sexual consent to kindergarten students, who will also learn to label different parts of the human body for the first time.
From Year 1 they will be taught to identify inappropriate online content, learn how to “assertively gain, give or deny consent and respect responses”, and protect themselves from abuse with a strategy called “No, Go, Tell”.
But the most reform in NSW will take place in the Human Society and its Environment (HSIE) sphere with its heavy emphasis on aboriginal issues.
“Students learn about aboriginal cultures and histories, providing opportunities to broaden every student’s knowledge about aboriginal peoples by engaging with the oldest living, continuous cultures in the world,” the NSW Education Standards Authority website states.
“Students develop an understanding of the sustainable practices developed and implemented by aboriginal and Torres Strait islander peoples over millennia, the diversity of aboriginal and Torres Strait islander peoples, the interdependence with country and place, and understandings of past and present.”
Examples of content include “identify the traditional custodians and aboriginal country where the school is located using images”, “describe natural features of land, water and sky country by engaging with aboriginal dreaming stories and languages”, and “identify specific terms aboriginal peoples may use to refer to the country they connect to”.
