It's a teacher or lecturer's job to be neutral and to encourage their students to think for themselves,to read between the lines and to be aware that politicians and the media slant the truth for their own ends.It's not for them to show case their own propaganda about whatever issue it is that they have a particular interest.

If say a vegetarian teacher wants to highlight an issue like animal welfare they must present ALL viewpoints not just the one that suits their own particular beliefs.

You are rather jumping to conclusions. In RE ethics is part of the syllabus.In Food Technology such subjects are covered.In PHSE it is part of the curriculem.It is not teacher's dreaming up issues to teach to the students.

And now you have removed your post...

Anyway we are getting OT.
