This is what you’re paying for, by the way.
You’re paying for your kids to be turned into sick and deranged freaks.
You’d do better to go live in Niger in a hut in the desert and enjoy your life.
You’d think people who can afford to pay £25,000 a year would be smart enough to not send their kids to a school where the teachers talk like this, but you’d be wrong.
The English curriculum at a leading London private school has been overhauled to include queer readings of texts and to challenge the “pale, male and stale” syllabus.
Pupils at the £25,000-a-year Alleyn’s School in Dulwich, south London, whose alumni include Jude Law, Florence Welch and CS Forester, now study books by a broader range of authors, including the first text by a non-binary writer on the A-level curriculum.
Students must choose one coursework text by a writer of colour for A-Level and are encouraged to study queer interpretations of texts including Dracula.
The changes were made to challenge “white-centric, patriarchal and cis-gender ideologies”, said Alex Smith, the school’s head of English.
