Teachers will be forced to spend class hours with schoolchildren "talking about the important." As Rotunda writes , in St. Petersburg, teachers gathered at the Academy of Postgraduate Education to watch the webinar of the Knowledge Society. As one of the meeting participants said, it was a lesson for class teachers from all regions. The meeting was dedicated to the new requirements for class hours, which will be called “We are talking about the important”, and among the topics of such class hours are the 110th anniversary of the author of the hymns of the USSR and Russia Sergey Mikhalkov, “The Immortal Regiment” and “reunification with Crimea”.

Methods for class hours will be published on specially created portals of the Knowledge society. A representative of the society at the meeting said that "an information war is being waged against schoolchildren, in the conditions of a special operation, this kind of education is a particularly important work." Thus, it is necessary to “protect children from the influence of the Internet,” he said.

The Knowledge Society was founded in 1947 in the USSR for propaganda and anti-religious purposes. In the nineties, it practically did not conduct any work, but it was officially liquidated only in 2016. In 2021, Russian President Vladimir Putin called for a "restart" of the organization. Her curator in the media was called the deputy head of the presidential administration, Sergei Kiriyenko.

On June 20, information appeared that Russia's recognition of the so-called DPR and LPR was included in the Russian school history curriculum. This became known from the draft program of the course "Introduction to the Modern History of Russia" for the 9th grade. It was published by the Federal State Institution "Institute for Educational Strategy of the Russian Academy of Education".

In early June, the Federation Council committee on science, education and culture asked the chairman of the Russian Historical Society (and head of the Foreign Intelligence Service) Sergey Naryshkin to examine school history textbooks and check whether they correspond to the historical and cultural standard.
