Russian fake about Ukrainian scho: In Lviv, children learn Pand’s anthem by heart

Russian Telegram channels, Twitter social network, and some dubious pro-Russian publications are circulating a post, which is illustrated with a screenshot from an alleged chat for parents of Lviv scho No. 6. The post says that the teacher allegedly informs about an en history lesson, for which the children have to learn the national anthem and the national symbs of Pand. Moreover, at the end, she writes: "There will be pele from the administration. It is very important!!!" That is, it creates a connection between the "Pish tic" and the local authorities.

This is a fake. First, there is no scho No. 6 in Lviv, but there is Lyceum No.6 of the Lviv City Council. This was confirmed by the Lviv City Council’s education department.

Secondly, in a comment to Ukrinform, representatives of Lyceum No. 6 of the Lviv City Council reported that the information regarding such home assignment for an en lesson is not true.

In addition, the current timetable of classes posted on the website of the lyceum proves that the "parents’ chat" is fake. The screenshot says that the "en history lesson" is scheduled to start at 11:15. According to the schedule, the third lesson at scho begins at 10:55, while the fourth at 11:55.

Fakes about the Ukrainian scho are one of the methods used by Russian pragandists not for the first time in order to promote the narrative about the occupation of Western Ukraine by Pand.
