flag U.S. education department's new curriculum sparks backlash over gender, religion, and transparency.

flag The U.S. Department of Education faces backlash over its new primary school curriculum, with hundreds of parents accusing it of promoting "woke ideology" through topics like gender identity, sexuality, and inclusive language. flag Critics, many citing religious beliefs, oppose the removal of references to God and sacraments, arguing the changes are inappropriate for young children and undermine family values. flag Some threaten to withdraw their children, while others question the department’s transparency and authority. flag The department defends the overhaul as the most comprehensive in over a generation, based on extensive stakeholder input including surveys, focus groups, and student consultations, with all feedback publicly reported.
