Not trying to belittle you, the video you posted was genuine however I can't find any other reference to the video of "bananas in nutella" that they ask about anywhere else.. and it is that part I am calling BS.

 

Had a look at 'The Scottish Family Party' last night, loads of videos on youtube "this is what they are teaching in Scottish Schools" - the first was from a US satirist, and the other one I watched was Canadian.... what was distinctly missing was any video produced in Scotland for the Scottish education system. To me looks like they were grabbing at anything, labelling it "shown in Scottish schools" with the assumption that most of their followers would get all angry, watch the next video and never check whether it was true or not. Then took a look at the RHSP (?) (quoted in your video) website, resources for schools, not a video listed among their resources - powerpoints and documents only... So I will stand by my thought that the banana / nutella video "promoted by the Scottish governments to use in schools" is BS.

 

Looking at the resources though, I think there is some that should be cut... but they arn't as extreme as your video suggests.

 

However your experience might be different from mine, if you have had different, what did the school say or do when you took it up with them that they were being shown this video?

 

You are utterly shameless SP/TA, read the room lad.

I meant home school his friends too. 

Ah right I see.  Mmmmm Not sure I could cope with my own boy all day, never mind his mates as well...  Actually it might not be so bad, they would egg each other on.

We put up with it though because they also teach good moral values like tolerance and kindness and inclusion. 

Shouldn’t those basics be a given with good parenting. 
Id much rather my kids were taught the core subjects and or additional practical skills that will help in life. Not the absolute shite that that the SNP and sexual deviants like SP/TA condone and actively promote up here in Scotland ie a male double rapist can identify as a woman and that’s ok, put him in a female prison 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ffs it’s just sheer lunacy. All the while as an example of what happens when the lunacy is allowed Scotlands education system is sliding down the rankings big time under SNP stewardship.

I was going to say similar but phrase it "have you ever been in a room full of teenagers for a day, would drive me mad"

Wouldn't that be just 'school' then with different teachers.....

 

However point to note, get them all home schooled, take control to teach them what you want and with the values you want - there is no minimum criteria of what to teach, no minimum standards so long as they are getting 'an education'*... and once a week get them all together in a church hall or something to socialise and do group work

 

 

* If you think it would be in their interests 'an education' could be business management such as learning how to do a small business admin side of things (yours....), practical skills such as mechanical skills (saw maintenance...), add in some English (or Welsh) and maths exams, and some practical skills (ground work, tree climbing...).. it is an education

It’s whatever you want it to be. The important bit is you’d not be abandoning your children to be indoctrinated in useless shit and harmful shit by government čunts.

In principle I totally agree.  What they teach at school is such a small aspect of what could be taught.  And yes of course parents could work together to educate kids.  As long as kids get good English and good numeracy they could then study a million things that will never lead to a GCSE.  Of course if they do ever want to do a degree they will need to work towards that at some point.  Of course A levels are not the only thing that count towards Uni.  My youngest got his first batch of UCAS points when he was eleven due to his guitar playing.  Mind you I doubt I will encourage my youngest to go to Uni.  Apprenticeship yes, Uni maybe not.
