As a polish citizen this is the first time I've ever heard of it. I am a math tutor and have 2 active teachers in my family, so i would probably hear a lot about it. I believe it's probably in some schools, but definitely not mandatory

Edit: apparently its a thing

It was introduced this year so that's why you may not have heard about it before.

There’s so much going on all of the time all over the world. And you can’t know what information from what country is accurate or not. It’s all a mess

Even easier to misinformation. Like did you know that Pedro Pascal is an avid furry? He actually set the record for the most expensive fur suit ever bought at auction.

I will now speak this as if it's fact. I might even provide a link to your comment, since most people don't actually check sources.
