[Margaret Pilkington]

It is being reported that Elton College are going to 'decolonialise'' history.
What does that mean exactly?
Well, it means that they are going to teach history as seen from their perspective. Through the prism of their ideology.....which is a worry.
It means that maybe the stories of our past will be edited.
How can this be the right way to teach adults?
They are not teaching them how to think, or how to analyse our history.
It means that the students will be taught WHAT to think....and how can these teachers be the arbiters of the viewing of the past?
What are their qualifications for this job.
