‘Confusion about the rights of staff to have their identity recognised, is undermining the rights of children to be protected from dogma’

No. Teachers should not force their religion or beliefs onto children.

Children are not there to validate them or their beliefs.

I would be making this very clear to the school and the governors.

I can't read it because I don't accept cookies, but I don't see a problem with asking the kids to call the teacher Mx as long as they explain that it's just because the teacher would like to be called that. And as long as they use an explanation like "people who call themselves non binary like to have different titles". If they use inaccurate language and say there are people who are non binary then I don't agree at all.
