OK, so the students should be taught that the T of E is a theory, and not proven beyond all doubt.
Perhaps students should be taught the nature of science, in which case pointing out that the ToE is "not proven beyond all doubt" would be unnecessary, as students would understand that nothing in science is ever "proven beyond all doubt".

"nothing in science is ever "proven beyond all doubt"."
true, but some things are more certain than others, for example, the process of how the digestive system works, which is pretty much known as fact and not a theory.
