Deep dives

Teachers limit instruction on controversial topics due to concerns of backlash

A study revealed that 65% of K-12 teachers in the US are restricting instruction on political and social issues. This is due to worries about potential backlash from parents and lack of support from school leaders. More parents are challenging books used in schools, and there is new legislation regulating discussions on race. The study showed that politically conservative areas were more likely to have teachers reevaluate their curriculum.
