Children as young as four will be encouraged to ‘explore’ their sexuality at a primary school’s planned ‘transgender day’, according to press reports in March.
St Mary the Virgin Primary School, East Sussex, announced that they would be hosting a series of talks and workshops looking at issues around gender and in particular the acceptance of transgender people.
Removing children?
The Allsorts Youth Project, which is providing the educational toolkit, said it would create a ‘safe space for trans-and-gender-questioning children, in which they can explore and be themselves’. According to reports, three families said they would be removing their children from school on the day, and around ten other parents have expressed concern about the plans to the headteacher.
