Or is the Education system a means of social engineering, designed by our Monopolist-Socialist governments to produce ideal workers for the type of society they have spent decades trying to create?
Mr Rod MacKinnon, head of Bexley Grammar School, certainly believes that schools are being used as a means of social engineering.
In today's Telegraph Online, he says, "There are those who wish to use children and schools as social engineers with a view to creating a different society but we should not even be trying to do such things," he said. "Children need to be nurtured, educated and cared for, not thrown into the frontline of social reform. Muddled thinking is guaranteeing failure for the noble aspirations we all commonly hold for the education of the young." Read the full article here.
Social engineers do not hide this fact, they freely admit it. Here is a quote from Naresh Singh, a program director at the International Institute for Sustainable Development:
"Education has been advanced as significant in bringing about changes in attitudes, behaviour, beliefs and values...In order to redirect behaviour and values towards institutional change for sustainable development there is a need to investigate strategic options in relation to educational philosophies, scope for propagation and adoption, and groups most likely to be susceptible to change." Source is here.
Is it the role of educators to bring about changes in attitudes, behaviour, beliefs and values? I maintain that this is not education, this is indoctrination. Who decides what attitudes, behaviour, beliefs and values are valid and which are not?
What effect has this social engineering had on our academic performance?
