I had a problem with my child being bullied at Infant school and the teachers told me that the children don’t know what bullying is at that age, but they do tell me that they seem to know what racism is at that age????
All this utter nonsense just adds more tension to an already segregated tension filled country

If you replace racist with communist or perhaps heretic then you have a direct comparison to this non-sense. We have an army of do gooders trying to find/make a problem that does not exist. Racism is a blunt instrument used to manipulate society and is a liberal/left wing cause célèbre. The sooner we get back to common sense and allow teachers to teach knowledge and not PC rubbish, the better for all concerned. English schools should not have to spend the whole time looking over their shoulders or the shoulders of their children. Get liberals and lefties out of the classroom and get some sense back!
Sad when our children are used as pawns in the government’s revisionist education agenda too.i.e.The English child has it’s country’s history revised or completely erased in an attempt to give everyone a bland ‘British’ identity.Guess which child suffers from this cultural cleansing?
If these kids are showing racist tendencies, we have the government to blame. They have allowed uncontrolled mass immigration to over populate England. They themselves have recently admitted that they got it wrong adn that in certain areas the ethnic English have legitimate concerns and complaints about the level of immigration which has resulted, for the local ethnic English, in job losses, loss of housing, overcrowding, anti social behaviour and health risks. Our lack of freedom of speech is also threatened here. The house of Lordas has just thrown out yet another government effort to curb our freedom of speech by trying to bring in a law which makes it illegal to disagree vocally with homo sexuality. Thankfully the Lords has thrown it back saying “This law breaks the Human Rights Act in that it restricts our freedom of speech” The governement has already broken the HR Act in many ways which makes some of it’s laws, such as racism or the vocal condemnation of it, illegal under the HR Act. The ethnic English have the basic right to say whatever they think!
Sadly it seems the country has been taken over by and is now being run by a group of people whose aim is to run it into the ground. Warnings were given years ago that this sort of PC nightmare would happen once the leftie do-gooders gained power..it’s almost as if they are getting their revenge for all those years of tory government when they were considered nothing more than a bunch of communist sympathisers who wanted to control the masses a la Stalin. In my opinion, the only way the UK will ever recover from this nightmare is to elect a government of people who actually care about the place and want everyone (black, white,yellow or red)to live together and be happy. Unfortunately these people have munipulated the races and filled everyone with suspicion and hatred against one another and we as a people have to reverse this thinking.
what are the teachers on to brand little kids racist this is a school in england are the teachers scared of treating english kids as english it makes you wounder what the teachers are being told what to say and act as a english man i am appaled of how low the teachers have gone to
I bet the idiot/s who slandered these innocent English kids doesn’t have any kids of their own. I bet it was some inept, know-it-all who said it. It is always the same type of person who says this sort of rubbish, I.E. some left-wing control freak.
Children will understand racism, when they are constantly barraged by teachers intimidation tactics.
Like sex education for 7 and 8 years olds has produced a nation of underage single mothers the governments failure to takle mass immigration WILL produce a nation of racists.
We seem to be allowing an entire generation of our children to be educated by politically correct do gooder liberals.
THEY ARE BRAIN WASHING OUR KIDS.
A recent national poll showed that something like 80% (I don’t remember the actual figure, of teachers believed it to be racist to teach patriotism………..
Maybe if we taught a little patriotism, civil pride and civic responsibility then society would not be in such a mess!!!!! Perhaps then we could reintegrate the left wing PC brigade into society.
Don’t you think this is all looking a little paranoid? The so called loony left, PC brigade are the people who have helped get rid of casual rascism and sexism. Remember all those text books that only referenced ‘he’ and never ’she’? And really, sex education causes single mothers? Nothing is that simple. Many of these problems start in the home. Take some responsibility. Peace and love!
All teachers are “do-gooders”. You don’t do this sort of job for the perks. What we need is more “righty” conservatives. You know, the ones who run the banks and make loads of money. Oh wait a second. They just ruined the economy.
And speaking as a lefty teacher for many years, believe me when I say there is little that I can do to stop a child being racist, homophobic or sexist. That’s where the parents have the really profound effect.
And sex education hasn’t created a “nation” of underage single mums. Try looking at the parents who allow their kids to get into this situation.
And finally, the policy is desgned to prevent casual racism from being okay - it is not necessarily to PUNISH kids, but to ensure that such things are dealt with. You can deal with racism by talking to children - they need to LEARN that it’s wrong. That’s how the world gets better.
It seems like everyone is so worked up about this that they are just going crazy, the state and those who vehemently oppose discussing race with children. The state is far overreacting to the problem, while their opposition seems to think pretending there isn’t a problem will make it go away. IMHO a problem has indeed been created, but not in a way anyone seems to recognize. Everyone seems so caught up in their own ideology that they can no longer communicate.
I would propose that children do indeed notice people different from them, the idea that children are naturally “colorblind” is wishful thinking. Some parents seem to believe that if they never speak of race, their children will never draw any negative conclusions about other cultures, but the kids want to know why some people are different, so they learn it from the playground, other kids and even TV. Those views might be abhorrent to the parents. Avoiding racial/cultural issues with children can have unintended consequences, parents need to get over their embarrassment and just talk to their kids about other kinds of people, the children will find the answers to their questions, it is better if their own parents engage them. (hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil doesn’t work)
Although it doesn’t help, the state finds reason to intervene because some kids are coming to school without any preparation by their parents to encounter racial/cultural differences, they learn and use these epithets because that is all they know about race, parents find out their kid has been called awful, hurtful names and are understandably upset (we aren’t talking childish names either, this is ‘N’word territory) . Children are giving other children their half-baked ideas because their parents have not given them everything they need to deal with a multicultural society. The state is very wrong to think this kind of intervention is helping, but some parents reaction against it is to insist their children need exactly the kind of protectionism that is causing the problem, rather than even trying to find out more or better yet, what they can do. The state should be helping the parents by giving access to resources that can help them impart their own views to their children, because it is a difficult subject for some people. So if those parents who need some advice get it, their kids won’t have to find the answers to their questions from undesirable sources (that means you, telly).
There are lots of reasons why the state is wrong to do what they are, but I won’t explain them all here. What I will say is that the quickest way to get them to stop is to give them a better solution, parents need to stop crying out for blood (except where it is truly warranted) and come together with the educators to teach children good manners.
Though it sometimes varies, by definition an infant can’t speak or walk. so I think the claim of infant bullying by the poster of this article might be misrepresentative and phrased to rile people against their ‘enemies’, rather than inform or help in any way to address these issues. I would even go so far as to say that the author should consider that they are part of the problem and might try collaborating with whoever educates their children rather than just attacking them on the internet. Almost everyone commenting here is also just whining about things that largely do not exist. Don’t worry, if you complain enough about how you don’t like the way other people try to solve the problems that you can’t, other will solve that problem for you.
I agree with Andy Cooper.
This government’s answer to every undesirable problem in society is to teach ever younger children all about it!
Thus introducting many innocents to the world of drugs, sex, racism and violence.
When will someone realise the way to instil a healthy attitude towards others and life in general is to teach children the good aspects. If they are taught co-operation and mutual respect by example and by experience they will absorb the message.
Teaching them all about the negatives will not stop those who are intent on trying some of these out and could even encourage future inappropriate behaviour.
No…by definition a pre school child does not know what bullying is but can they do it…of course they can. Can they define racism… probably not but can they be taught to be afraid of differences…absolutely. I think what is important is not whether they can give a Webster’s dictionary definition of PC terms but rather, shown how to create a pattern of thinking that accepts instead of condemns and listens instead of criticizes. This is not a task isolated to the young, nor is it an easy one. Society, all societies, are woven with fear and all the terms we desperately create to explain the manifestation of this fear will drop away once we address the foundational problem.
Children at nursery school mimic other around them follow what parents do and visitors also have an impact on nursery school age children. Young children do you right from wrong, although at time they do not know exactly what some words mean and do not think of consequences of there actions. Missing children with all races helps combat this issue for the child’s future life. Nursery teachers could and should do more to help as with parents.
