Should critical race theory be taught in K-12 education?

Yes, but CRT is a university level course, that isnt even taught to primary or secondary schoolers!!!

yes? but when in secondary (yr 9) and in specialised classes (citizenship) debates can be invited and a stance that is'nt necessarily biased.

I believe kids should be taught about the 1800s but not to be told to apologise for something that happened over 200 years ago

I think religious education should be taught as to what people believe in witbout indoctrination. Extremist religious beliefs and how children can be aware of the dangers of grooming should also be taught as the level of vulnerable children, especially during the pandemic, who were targeted is appalling. This should be an area that is focused on by the government to safeguard and protect young vulnerable members of our society.

I think it’s more important teachers get trained on this. Children and are typically away of this stuff. It’s a waste of resources to preach to the converted

History is history. If we cover slavery it should be made clear that African and Middle East had a worse track record for slavery and that English were slaves as well. Every topic we choose to cover should be wholly covered and not just selective periods out of context

No and instead teach kids about how racism is good

I think it should be taught at an age where children can understand and acknowledge the problems of racism within the world

Divisive and complicated. There is no need for Primary school children to learn this, I feel. Furthermore, children descended from the 'oppressive race' should not be made to feel like they are inherently bad, as much of the discourse surrounding this has done and only added to the division. It has often led to unproductive conversations and worsened racism at times. It might be that the schools are not the place to delve into something too deeply however it can be something that high school children are made aware of but no more than that. This is a stance I am too uneducated on to have a firm belief in however.

Not in its current form- Critical Race Theory is a US import and racial history in the USA is different to the UK and cannot be brought in directly. Some of these concepts are also difficult to teach well outside a highly academic context- and their usefulness in the fight against racism is debatable.

Yes, at a suitable age where they can understand and if the teaching is fair and honest

The word racism is in itself racist as the so called races are not actually different races but all apart of the Human race.

Yes, and also add Intersectionality, the 1619 Project and Social Inequality to the curriculum.

Yes but not as fact but opinion

Yes, but with context that this is a theory, and show competing facts.

Yes but it should not be mandatory

Yes, because CRT is just a point of view but it should not be mandatory

It’s complex

Teach CRT but, also allow kids to challenge it.

Yes, but I think this should be extended to learning other forms of discrimination as well (homophobic & sexist institutions)

Yes, and focus on the critical part.
