The reason I ask is because, in all education levels before higher education, it's generally taught that the revolution was a fight between liberty and tyranny. Particularly, the right to rule ourselves and get away from the unfair laws of King George III. However, now that I'm in college, I'm hearing a different version of that part of history that paints the start of the issues as a misunderstanding of the Tea Act and the colonist's gross overreaction. I'd love to hear what Europeans are being taught at all education levels.
I and several others addressed this question here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/5674to/american_textbooks_only_give_us_one_view_of_the/ I went through the textbooks that British students use (some of which are American anyway).
To summarise, most British students are not taught about the American Revolution; we have far too much of our own history to have time. It's an optional module in an optional course in 6th form (what you'd call Senior High School? 16-18).
While it is presented broadly as a revolution caused by people being angry at taxation without revolution, issues like anti-Catholicism are mentioned that perhaps show it in more nuance than it might be shown in America. Not to mention all the taxes that were reduced or lifted because of American complaints. And I suspect that the Founding Fathers are much less hagiophied than in an American curriculum (not having learnt history in America, it's difficult to tell). Are American students taught much, for example, about the Seven Years War, and the big debt that Britain got into which led to the taxes?
But, in short, it's certainly still presented as a fairly justified revolution, of a demand for more representation, pre-shadowing British people's own demands for greater representation in Parliament and the lessening power of the King over the 19th century.
