The decision to minimise the study of Australian history was taken by the department of education about 17 years ago. Political correctness and a feeling that history should be replaced by social,environmental and contemporary cultural studies has lead to most high school kids knowing lots about green house gases, Styrofoam, and contemporary culture studies such as "The impact of Australian Idol in the Australian Media Audience" and little about Australian historical figures. Much of this is powered by the education departments skewed pro multicultural ideology and politically correct rhetoric designed to keep Australians ignorant of their historical heritage because in the view of the department, it is not in keeping with buzz words such as "tolerance". In short left wing power brokers in the department are embarrassed about our historical roots and see teaching it in the class room as socially and politically disenfranchising to the political goals of the organisation as expressed through its union and industry associations. Good Luck Jimmy
