Thinking about her views about six year olds, many of our schools are encouraging confusion in children by planting ideas that they may have an inner gender identity at odds with their body if they do not conform to stereotypes of masculine and feminine. This can happen through their RSE lessons in schools which are outsourced to providers. The pushing of ideas of gender identity may be subtle or more overt.
The Tate for example has recently drawn attention for providing a school resource that is steeped in gender identity ideology, as well as offering Drag Queen Story Time with Aida H Dee.

The poster screen shot below which is from a school resource on the wall of a primary school shows a deliberate conflation and confusion with sex and gender and effectively removes ‘sex’ from the nine protected characteristics of the Equality Act ( although the poster does not mention the EA).
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
