Peter Dutton says he has ‘no proposals’ to change school curriculum despite earlier claims about ‘indoctrination’

The debate over Australia’s school curriculum has intensified as the Coalition claims no plans to change what students are taught despite earlier pledges on critical thinking and citizenship. Peter Dutton avoided discussing potential changes at a press conference, with opposition leader Josh Malouf accusing him of reversing his previous stance. Education experts warn that state governments’ autonomy complicates any national curriculum overhaul, while teachers face political interference as the Coalition campaigns against perceived indoctrination efforts.
