With recent changes to the National Curriculum in Scotland secondary schools are encouraged to follow a broad general curriculum in the years S1-S3. This means that within this framework many schools may opt to teach the holocaust, either within a broader unit on the rise of Hitler and life in Nazi Germany, or within a unit on the Second World War, or even as a stand-alone unit of study.
