...we had a huge classroom debate about Stormzy and Boris Johnson this morning...it’s the first one we’ve had since the General Election..so inspired by Stormzy, I guess we can say...(...no mention of Piers Morgan, though...I’m not sure that the children in the class are aware of him..)...it was a very interesting discussion...lots of really engaged children with very interesting views of their PM...and many young people being huge fans of Stormzy......

.....a voice of much wisdom, Bots...it’s inspiring to see children much more engaged in politics than back in the day...and to map their critical thinking.....

Well, they're kids so I doubt it was a House of Commons debate. Good grief.

Discussing the world and the news with each other is very healthy. Don't be such a snowflake.

I totally agree. Politics has no place in a classroom of young children. It is the parents perogative to speak to their child on the subject. Schools have no business indoctrinating young minds, or allowing a visitor to do so in any direction, which may go against the beliefs and values of their parents.
When children are a lot older they can weigh up differing views and make up their own minds, young children can't, at a stage when they are very impressionable to boot.
