Seriously, if a kid displays obvious gender confusion issues ( yes, it does happen) then that has to be addressed. Otherwise, why not just leave things alone. Kids can be evil little ****ers and don’t need any encouragement to pick on and bully other kids.
My kids can't read so it doesn't matter, once they can knock out a Nike T-Shirt in 30 seconds I'm shipping them off to India.
I personally couldn't give a **** one way or the other about it being introduced in school. But on your second point, some of the reasoning behind it is to help prevent exactly that.
Many years ago I was on a site in the grounds of the Natural History Museum in Kensington. We had this mad Scotsman with us who couldn’t help himself yelling at passing women (most of whom seemed to find him funny, tbf. He wasn’t outright offensive). On one occasion he yelled something, I forget what, at a particular beauty as she walked past the railings on Cromwell Road. Then he got a shock... “****ing hell” he shouted, “she’s coming over”. She was too, because as it turned out, she was the P.A. of the client. He was off the site the next day; we never found out why because that wasn’t his only misdemeanour.
You can if you are Muslim it seems and force the school to submit to your demands and threats . The school in question scrapped the LGBT lessons . So who you going to condemn this time the school for appeasement or the intolerant Muslim parents? We are not talking about me so rethink your reply to suit the actual question dribble.
Not sure that's accurate mate. Some stuff is already compulsory in primary and some is being drafted for 2020, to be compulsory
Well that is a shame if they have ended the programme. It wasn't part of the curriculum though, the school has ended its "No Outsiders lessons". The national curriculum comprises of specific subjects and certain initiatives which you cannot pull your children out of.
Thanks for your input but it's a Yes No answer . Clearly stumped many of the alt left regressive types on here that want to champion the LGBT community but don't want to offend Muslims either by accepting LGBT people as normal human beings . Best poll ever
The most you learn about in terms of any sex education is puberty mate and that's around when the children are in Yeaar 5 or Year 6 (age 10/11) because many children are going through it younger and younger for some reason. And even then, it's usually separately taught to each gender (with the school nurse is good practise). The only thing taught at a younger age is relationships within say a family context. So mum/dad, single parents, mum/mum, dad/dad and also things like carers for foster children etc. It's only to raise awareness and make it all be considered the norm.
Actually the protests are from Muslim and Christian , as well as other denomination parents. The case is quite interesting looking at it. Because the curriculum is not what started it. But the deputy head who designed a programme, he himself is gay, to add to the curriculum. The law as it stands should actually not have allowed him to do so
Muslims, Christians and Jews from what I've heard depending on the area and the schools involved. That part in bold is spot on. It's not part of the national curriculum.
You are right in some of what you say tbf. But there are changes afoot. So basically the curriculum as it stood/stands allowed certain stuff to be taught to primary but there are motions to apply sex education into it by 2020. Under older legislation you are right it was secondary when certain elements came into it. So puberty before puberty etc. In this schools case the deputy head designed something specifically and started to implement it under the relationships agenda, which primary's have, but the content was not what falls under relationships, but under sex education. If that makes sense
