Feminism: Sex and gender discussions

LGBT History Month: PSHE Resource Pack for Schools (2017) doesn't list SEX as a protected characteristic under the EA 2010. Is this still the case?

Anyone know if this resource pack from The Proud Trust has been updated since 2017? (DD's school are using it this month). Usual conflation of sex and gender. The 2017 version states:

EQUALITY ACT

In this year, the UK government introduced a piece of legislation that brought together all the previously existing anti-discriminatory law.

It states that it is unlawful to discriminate against someone on account of sexual orientation and gender reassignment amongst other characteristics. The other ‘protected characteristics’ are race, religion,gender, disability, age, marriage, pregnancy and maternity.

Also contains 'assigned at birth' and our old friend the Genderbread Person.

Does anyone know if this resource pack for schools now includes sex as a protected characteristic or is it still gender?

"Sexual orientation: A term used to describe the types of people (often based on gender) that you find yourself attracted to. Attraction can be emotional, sexual, physical and/or spiritual."

The erasure of homoSEXuality and heteroSEXuality!
