Advice please: Andrew Moffat / No Outsiders

[SlobDylan]

Hello, I’m looking for advice please.

(I’ve done a search on this but the only threads are from 2020 and I’d appreciate an up to date take on this).

My child’s primary school has just announced that Andrew Moffat will be coming in to school to speak to the children. Both the school and the website link provided seem exceptionally vague in terms of what is actually said to children during these sessions.

In the MN threads from 2020, people have noted that AF / No Outsiders misquotes the gender equality act. Can anyone tell me if this is still the case and point me to the relevant part on the NO outsiders website?

I want to be able to go back to the s hook with informed questions and accurate facts.

Thanks for any help or advice.

Anyone?

Ask for more detail.
Check if they know about the scandal at Park Anderton and if they are aware of the mandatory government guidance which has been updated and if the content that will be shared will meet the criteria in those guidance documents.

Of nothing else it will buy you time and raise some eyebrows.

Please do DM me for more.

Thank you @OhHolyJesus - can you point me in the direction of where to find the updated government guidance? Thank you so much.

Thank you so much @Thelnebriati

Thanks @AnOldCynic i will take a look.

There is a thread on the sex and gender forum on No Outsiders. They do seem to conflate 'gender' and 'sex' and whoever does their posters says that talking about gender rather than sex means talking about gender transfer later is then easier! Also that 'sex' makes kids giggle. No Outsiders seems to have a pro-trans agenda that you should check up on.
