To answer the question 'do they still teach geography in schools?'
Sort of. In Primary schools they teach it on a rota basis, every other term, alternating with History. And they dont learn about maps anymore, they do a short spell of it for a few weeks, and then its all about what the world looks like these days and hows its changing. A survey was done with high school kids and they didn't know where Ireland was or even where the cities where in the uk!!
They are all going to get lost as soon as they leave home.
