just as evolution is taught as fact in Science lessons, do you think Creationism should be taught too?

isn't it already taught in schools though? when I was doing my bio GCSE we had to learn why people at the time weren't accepting of the idea of evolution - the main reason being creationism and religious ideas.
it shouldn't be taught fully though - it's not that useful

isn't the most sensible and acceptable solution a combination of both Evolution and Creationism?

Why is it sensible to teach something that has no empirical evidence as fact?

I mean the theory that is was GOD who kick-started evolution, not just a random accident, but once again, teaching it as a THEORY.

2) It's still barely a theory with no evidence to support it, unlike evolution.
3) Both creationism and deism should be taught as worldviews in religious studies because they are equally unscientific.

the idea of the earth being around for 6000 years is just pure BS.
ok, when I say creationism, I more meant the idea that GOD started whatever form of evolution or whatever you believe in.

Regardless of term, there is zero evidence that what you're suggesting happened. So no, it should not be taught in schools.

Creationism should absolutely be taught in RE, but never in science. To claim that a belief in a God is in any way scientific is frankly damaging to the profession of science, because faith, by its very nature, cannot be supported by empirical evidence.
