“SCHOOL is supposed to be a safe place for children.
Teachers have a responsibility to report any signs that kids are in trouble: suspicion of sexual exploitation and abuse; drug and alcohol use; self-harm or mental health problems.
Yet as draft guidance on transgender issues for schools is set to be published by Education Secretary Gillian Keegan today, parents and others concerned about the welfare of children brace themselves for a battle.
The guidance is a response to an outcry from those against the transing of children in school, also known as “social transitioning”.
Since transgender ideology captured the nation, children at nursery are being questioned if they are content being a boy or a girl, often without their parents’ knowledge or consent.
Rishi Sunak has been promising to deliver guidance for schools on this matter for several months, but it would appear the Government is worried that a blanket ban would be challenged under current equalities law.
For the moment it would appear that social transitioning cannot be banned — despite that it very often leads to kids being prescribed puberty blockers and, subsequently, cross-sex hormones.”
