Opinion: Alberta's draft curriculum doesn't set up students for success

Article content
The word “unteachable” has been used to describe the draft K-6 Alberta curriculum. Thousands of parents, teachers, and scholars are raising concerns about plagiarism, factual errors, developmental inappropriateness, and historical and ideological bias.

But rarely has it been more explicit in its back-to-the-future approach to governing than with its new proposed K-6 curriculum, which takes the government’s atavistic approach to a whole different level.
Take, for example, the sycophantic mention of Kenney’s own grandfather in the section on what Grade 6 students should learn in music class.
