School children in Wales have been taught to plot illegal migration routes from Syria to the UK during class.

Students at St John Lloyd School in Llanelli attended lessons where they were urged to plot land and sea journeys across Europe.


Pupils were awarded either bronze, silver or gold grades if they found routes in which “all controlled borders are avoided”.

To earn gold, a student must “plan a route from Syria to the UK,” ensuring that “controlled borders are avoided using land and sea”.

To receive a bronze grade, they must ensure that “all controlled borders are avoided”.

It is understood that teachers were using resources from the platform Google Classroom.

The material has been removed from the library of school resources, while Carmarthenshire council has launched an investigation to “look into the matter”.

Speaking to The Telegraph, psychotherapist James Essess, who initially highlighted the lessons, said: “Increasingly, woke and often anti-British propaganda continues to be snuck in through the back door in schools.”

“Instead of simply teaching students how to read maps, they appear to do so under the guise of helping illegal immigrants enter the United Kingdom.”

He added: “Given the widespread concerns across the country regarding illegal migration, I imagine most parents would be up in arms at the thought of such ideological indoctrination in their children’s schools.”

It comes amid concerns of how schoolchildren are being taught about migration.

Last year, Usbourne Publishing released a children’s book for those aged seven and over titled Lift the Flap: Questions and Answers About Refugees, which told readers that “we all have roots in other countries”.

The book came with a teaching guide that included one classroom activity in which children had to write to their local MPs to express how much refugees “enrich our countries”

In addition, the Labour-run Welsh Government has vowed to create an “Anti-Racist Wales” by 2030, with all public bodies called on to play a part in addressing discrimination.

The directive has required organisations and museums to educate pupils in the “right historic narrative” that recognises “historical injustices”, while requiring teaching material at museums and other attractions to “tell stories through the lens of black, Asian and minority”.
