This petition has been sitting on the petitions thread getting no where with little time left to go.. I thought people might pay more attention to it here.
Children are being subtlety brainwashed.
Remove references to 'gender identity' from relationships education guidance
^Since 2020 the DfE has published guidance for relationships and sex education. This says "Pupils should be taught the facts and the law about sex, sexuality, sexual health and gender identity in an age-appropriate and inclusive way". Gender identity is a social construct, and not recognised in law.*
There's no evidence that we're born with a ‘gender identity’, and we do not believe that schools should be teaching children about this concept. We also believe that teaching school children about gender identity is inconsistent with the Education Act (section 406), which prohibits 'political indoctrination'. The Government should remove all references to 'gender identity' from guidance on relationships and sex education.
This has only 5,084 signatures so far. It needs 10,000 the government will respond.
