Teachers ‘forcing their Leftist views on pupils’
A TEACHER who is the face of a Government recruitment campaign has warned that children are being subjected to “Left-wing brainwashing” in the classroom.
Calvin Robinson, who appears in promotional videos for the Department for Education’s “I Chose to Teach” recruitment drive, has hit out at his fellow teachers for politicising their students.
The head of computer science at St Mary’s and St John’s School in Hendon, north London, said pupils are being “indoctrinated to a Left-wing mentality” and encouraged to see the Conservative party as “evil”.
Mr Robinson, the youth officer for the Hampstead and Kilburn Conservative group, said that schools cannot “have their cake and eat it”.
He told The Daily Telegraph: “They can’t ban political discussion when something right wing comes, but then spout their left wing agenda at the children … We don’t want them brainwashed against authority, especially not by teachers.”
