I think your original question has been answered in so far as two of us Scots have confirmed that there is no formal education in our schools here concerning the Jacobite rebellions culminating at Culloden. I am not sure that there is anything particularly positive in teaching these particular events in that after Culloden Jacobism became pretty much of an irrelevance and the Industrial Revolution together with the growth of the British Empire and all that entailed became the deciding influence on subsequent events. As far as the American revolution, while not wishing to diminish its importance in any way to the American people, Britain at that time was becoming the most highly industrialised nation in the world and, together with amassing the most extensive colonial empire the world had ever seen was undoubtedly more preoccupied in that direction. The loss of the American colonies was probably not a sufficiently significant factor in Britain's subsequent history to compete with the hugely successful advances elsewhere, opportunities which Scots successfully exploited all around the world.
