Nigel Farage has declared Reform UK will "go to war against the teachers' unions" after educators were urged to embed the belief that the party was "far-Right and racist" in children.
Next month, the National Education Union (NEU) will demand that students are fully educated on the dangers of backing the populist party at the polls.
At the union's conference, educators will debate whether "far-Right and racist organisations, including Reform" have weaponised refugees, asylum seekers, Muslims and Jews to advance their own political agenda.
The motion has claimed that the four million votes for Reform UK during the General Election last year were secured on an "anti-immigration platform".

The debate will further demand that teachers "educate and challenge" students who are attracted to "racist beliefs and far-Right activity".
Additionally, teachers will be asked to think of ways to develop anti-racist resources to deploy in schools.
Reform has consistently refuted claims that it is a far-Right organisation - with the BBC even forced to apologise for labelling it so in a report.
Retaliating against the unions' demands, Farage said: "Reform is subject to endless propaganda at the hands of teachers. When we are in a position to do so, we will go to war against the teachers’ unions."
When asked whether he believes the party is far-Right and racist, shadow Chancellor Mel Stride told GB News: "No, I think to apply that as a general comment to any political party that's part of the democratic process and has representatives in Parliament is wrong."

Reform MP Lee Anderson said: "The NEU has revealed its true colours.
"By indoctrinating our youth, silencing free speech and spreading hateful rhetoric, they have abandoned their legal duty of political neutrality."
Since the General Election, the party's popularity across the nation is believed to have taken flight amongst the younger generations.
Last month, a poll conducted by Find Out Now revealed that around 30 per cent of those aged 16 and 17 would vote for the populist party if the voting age was lowered - something which the Labour Party pledged in its manifesto.

School mock elections have seen a surge in support for Reform UK - much to the apparent distaste of teachers and staff members.
Around 20 per cent (one in five) of 70,000 voters supported Farage's party in the Hansard Society and Association for Citizen Teaching’s mock elections for schools.
Across Britain, Reform decisively blew the Tories and the Liberal Democrats out of the water - as Scotland and London were the only regions which bucked the trend.
The West Midlands, East Midlands and the East of England saw around 25 per cent backing the party.
However, certain schools were accused of being "embarrassed" of the results as the elections were initially widely publicised but faded into obscurity as school leaders attempted to dodge announcing the faux election frontrunner.
One pupil at an independent school in Bath told the Daily Mail: "Everyone was involved in a whole school mock general election and the school put social media pictures up of everyone taking part and voting but then the results were never officially announced.
"It was common knowledge that Reform had won and it wasn’t the result the school were expecting so they just went quiet on it all."
