Explain school under nazism?
Answers
At school, students were taught to worship Adolf Hitler. All textbooks
reflected the Nazi ideology. Children were encouraged to wear Hitler Youth and
German Girls' League uniforms to school. School noticeboards were covered with
Nazi propaganda posters.
Education in "racial
awareness" was given in schools and children were constantly reminded of
their racial duties to the "national community". Biology and
political education were compulsory. Children were taught about "worthy"
and "unworthy" races.
The ultimate purpose of education was to fashion citizens conscious of the glory of the country and filled with fanatical devotion to the national cause. Courage in battle, sacrifice for a greater cause, boundless admiration for the Leader and hatred of Germany's enemies, the Jews were the central themes of teaching history.
