A gay lobby group has been given lottery cash to promote ‘alternative families’ in Scottish primary schools, it was reported in mid-August.

The Awards for All scheme gave £10,000 to Stonewall Scotland to circulate DVDs celebrating same-sex parents.

Stonewall Scotland says the scheme challenges homophobia, but critics say it undermines the traditional family. Every primary school in Scotland will receive a DVD along with support materials for teachers to use in classrooms.
