The question could be rephrased: Are people who have been thoroughly exposed to curriculum X less likely to accept curriculum Y? What about religious education?

The question fails to take into account that educational institutions share a common root with religious institutions.

Yes if a program of indoctrination is thoroughly administered, it is less likely that radically different systems will be given much respect.
