British Schools to Dump Traditional Lessons
Public secondary schools in Britain will be told to stop teaching traditional lessons and replace them with "month-long interdisciplinary projects on topics such as global warming." Forget the basics. Let's do projects instead!
This comes on the heels of some British schools dropping Holocaust studies for fear of offending Muslim students.
I shudder to think how prepared for the world British students will be. And I shudder to think that our schools might latch on to this ridiculous trend.

Actually, we appear to be well ahead of the Mother Country in this matter. Schools seem to be teaching "Global Warming" all year long.
