We went to look round a primary school today, as our DD will be starting school in September.
The headteacher was showing us their outdoor space and he said, "It's great because boys - and some girls - like to play robustly outdoors."
Do you think this is sexist? It really set my teeth on edge. They asked for feedback at the end of the visit, and I wrote down that I was disappointed to hear such gendered language from a leader, but now I'm second-guessing myself and wondering if I was overreacting.
