Those who can't teach

Would appear to be making a living as history teachers in Sweden.

Those lovely people at The Local have a report on a survey on Shoah awareness among Swedish teachers by the Living History Forum, and 7/10 of surveyed teachers failed the test, with only 2 out of 5081 getting 100%.

I have not been able to find the quiz, and so it is difficult to know whether the questions were basic or were asking questions like the name of the wife of the commandant at Majdanek. Perhaps the Forum will include the details at some point, but thus far I cannot track down the details.

Maybe they were just members of the Swedish equivalent of the SWP...?
