Spanish History is missing for many British school children

Clueless British children think Spanish Armada is a national dish and Sir Walter Raleigh invented the bicycle

If you have begun to 

teach yourself Spanish you may be amazed that 

British children know little about their own culture, let alone the Spanish culture. British children reckon the Spanish Armada is a national dish, Walter Raleigh invented the bicycle and 18th Century explorer Captain Cook was the helm of Starship Enterprise, according to research released today. 

Frighteningly, a new survey also reveals that  many also think that the Battle of Waterloo was fought at the London rail terminal, Horatio Nelson captained the French football team in the Nineties... and  that thousands have never set foot in the sea.
