LGBT Youth Scotland have recruited about 20 schools in Scotland so far. The first primary school was Downfield Primary in Dundee, and the project was heavily supported by Gregor Murray, the SNP councillor who recently resigned having called the 8 Lesbians who carried a 'Lesbians are Female Homosexuals' sign at London Pride 'Vile Cunts'. Gregor Murray also was criticised for calling women 'roasters' and criticised by the former Scottish Labour leader Kezia Dugdale as sexist.
This is Gregor Murray. I have avoided personal pronouns because I wish to follow Mumsnet's policy re 'misgendering. Gregor Murray self-describes as a 'non binary woman'

They received £900,000 in funding from the Scottish Government in 2017. They are intending to roll out their 'LGBT Schools Charter' further across Scotland. This programme HAS NOT been endorsed by the Scottish Government.
Of particular concern is the 'Supporting Transgender' document that they claimed had been endorsed by the Scottish Government, only to admit it was an 'error' some 8 months later. See link:

This document actively acts against standard safeguarding in advising that in the case of young people who have confided in teachers re gender identity issues, this information should not be given to parents.
It also advises that there is no need for parents to be aware when their child is sharing accommodation with children of the opposite sex, who have gender identity issues. It also supports the use of breast binders for female children with gender identity issues.
Please read this document. It is important that parents are aware what is being taught to their children
The LGBT Schools charter is a trojan horse for the wholescale adoption of transgender ideology and plays on most decent parent's wish to have their children taught tolerance and diversity and the acceptance of LGBT issues, but who are not aware of the complexity or controversial issues surrounding transgender issues and the ideologies pushed by some.
Also, LGBT Youth have a 'Chat Line', which they are expanding with further recruitment of 'Digital Officers'. Given their approach to not sharing information with children's parents, it is of concern as to what advice is/will be given via these Chat lines, or indeed who LGBT Youth is accountable to in the giving of advice to young vulnerable people.
