THE BBC has been accused of pushing woke Left-wing political views on migration, Net Zero and inequality to millions of schoolchildren.
The Beeb’s education site Bitesize – used by almost half of all children aged four to 16 – allegedly promotes “extreme” views on immigration, climate change and social justice.
It features an online game called “Increasing Immigration”, which rewards pupils for backing open borders and granting amnesties to illegal migrants, a Mail on Sunday investigation revealed.
The game tells children aged 11 to 14: “We don’t have enough people of working age to keep our society running smoothly.
“We should try to attract migrant workers and incorporate them into our economy.”
In one scenario, pupils lose points for choosing to deport migrants living in the country without the correct visas, while granting an amnesty earns rewards.
Another offers the choice of open borders, which boosts the economy score by three points and public health by two.
Those rejecting the policy as “too radical” receive nothing, the Mail reports.
Shadow Education Secretary Laura Trott demanded the BBC remove the game.
She said: “The BBC has crossed a line. They have a duty to remain impartial, and yet they are using learning tools as a vehicle to push a Left-wing political agenda onto young children.
“Advocating open borders encourages illegal small boat crossings. These are the type of toxic resources dressed up as education which should be nowhere near the classroom.”
The BBC insists players are not rewarded for political positions, pointing out that points are also awarded for training local people and closing borders.
But other Bitesize material claims migrants contribute more in tax than they use in public services and pump a “staggering amount of money” into the economy.
The website also suggests concerns that migrants take jobs from locals are likely to stem from “prejudice”.
Former BBC television controller Danny Cohen called for an urgent investigation.
He said: “The BBC needs to explain why its educational website is pushing extreme Left-wing ideologies to schoolchildren.
“There is such a lack of balance in so many areas of the BBC’s output that it cannot be seriously defended as coincidental.”
Bitesize has also been accused of promoting contentious Net Zero policies, describing the target as an “important goal” and urging pupils to petition local government.
One video tells Welsh students reaching Net Zero could mean having to “fly less, eat less meat or stick to sustainably farmed meat”.
The material comes despite Sir Keir Starmer previously saying tackling climate change “does not mean telling people how to run their lives”.
Elsewhere, the website praises climate activist Greta Thunberg and the Black Lives Matter movement, while encouraging pupils to campaign with groups such as Amnesty International.
Alex Burghart, Shadow Cabinet Office Secretary, said: “The BBC was set up to inform, educate and entertain – not misinform, re-educate and brainwash.”
Former Tory Education Secretary Gavin Williamson added: “The mask has slipped and the BBC has yet again betrayed its rampant Left-wing political agenda.
“The state broadcaster brainwashing children using a homework game is like something from a North Korean re-education camp.”
Launched in 1998, Bitesize is one of Britain’s biggest education websites, with almost 1.7 million pupils accessing it every week.
The row comes as the BBC faces a crucial period ahead of its charter renewal, with Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy expected to publish a White Paper before Christmas.
Director-general Matt Brittin has pledged to tackle bias by introducing technology to monitor how often certain words and phrases are used.
A BBC spokesman said: “BBC Bitesize works with educational consultants to develop resources that help young people explore and understand a wide range of topics, aligned to the respective curriculums across the UK.
“While we don’t accept the characterisation of Bitesize in this story, we regularly review content to ensure it remains relevant and to ensure it meets the BBC’s editorial standards and will review these examples in that context.”
