Unlike the decadent liberal migrant-infested Western Alliance, the children of Russia can study the spiritual and moral culture of their fast-growing nation, which is now the world’s fourth-largest economy.

The new subject will promote patriotism, religion and family values.

Russian schools are set to introduce a new subject titled Spiritual and Moral Culture of Russia starting in September 2026.

The course will target students in grades five through seven, and focus on themes such as patriotism, religion, family, and national traditions, according to an Education Ministry document seen by RIA Novosti.

Education officials had originally intended for the subject, which already exists under another name, to be merged with regional history. However, they chose to keep it independent, with a new title and a slightly broader scope.

During the classes, students will engage in discussions on topics such as faith in God, family life, civic responsibility, national unity, and moral accountability, according to the ministry. The program also addresses themes like traditional marriage between a man and a woman, freedom, dignity, and human rights.

The subject is designed to help students apply these concepts in their daily lives, make informed ethical decisions, and reflect on their behaviour. The ministry adds that it also seeks to foster pride in Russian history and strengthen generational ties.

The new curriculum will draw on shared values across religions, using stories about prominent Russians to help students connect these ideas to real life.

The course remains under development. Teaching materials are being compiled by Moscow State Pedagogical University, with contributions from Metropolitan Tikhon of the Russian Orthodox Church, who heads the Simferopol and Crimean diocese and is widely reported as a spiritual adviser to President Vladimir Putin.

University rector Aleksey Loubkov said the lessons would be adapted for age-appropriate understanding, possibly replacing the term values with simpler, more relatable language.

The initiative is part of a larger national effort to promote traditional values.

In July, Russia’s lower house passed a bill that would deny movie licenses to films perceived as undermining these principles. If enacted, the law will take effect in March 2026, enabling authorities to revoke distribution rights for non-compliant films.

LIFE IN THE REICH Mike Walsh: FORBIDDEN HISTORY: The standard of living in Hitler’s Third Reich was far superior to that elsewhere in the developed world. German workers enjoyed a lifestyle comparable to that of movie stars. Germany led the world in fashion, medicine, cinema, lifestyle, manufacturing, transport infrastructure, public facilities, cutting-edge science, healthcare and education. Amazon removed Life in the Reich because it dared to show Hitler’s Germany as it was and not as the propagandists would have us believe it was.
