Has anyone done this?
I know what it is in reality (affirm behind parents back, change name and pronouns without parental knowledge)
But after the cass report I'd like to ask them what it is in writing.
I'm considering making a complaint.
Feminism: Sex and gender discussions
Asking a school what their policy on gender questioning children is?

Thankyou but I don't live anywhere near Brighton and I'm not sure if they use the toolkit.

Not ignore, but thank them for calling and ask them to put everything in writing.
At my daughter's school they were selling cupcakes for a Brighton-based charity - and we are nowhere near Brighton either.
Is yours primary or secondary?

If they phone should I ignore and request all communication around this be in writing?

You have made such an important step @CiaoBe
Well done!

I've emailed asking for the guidelines they were following when they socially transitioned my daughter behind me back.
Am feeling quite nervous as I basically laid everything out and told them they've damaged my daughter and it never should have happened.

In my email I asked twice for a copy of the policies or guidelines they'd been following, to be sent to me.
He replied with a meeting offer.
But didn't mention the policies.
Should I email back and say 'could you please send the policies over before the weekend so I have a chance to look at them before the meeting?'
I have a feeling they don't have anything in writing to follow.
Which is even more concerning isn't it?
That each teacher is just winging it?
Or they don't wnat to share it?

It must BE written down - it must BE safe and useful and appraised so WHY won't they share it?
Don't even give them a moment to think this might die down. You need it in writing, you need to know if it has been reappraised in light of the Cass review, you need to know, as a concerned parent if the legal advice you have seen applies to the guidance and to your child.

I will be doing the same next year once my daughter has left (but for now we need them to write the UCAS references...)

I'm in the same situation as you. In fact, I thought it wasn't worth bothering, that they wouldn't answer me as I would no longer have a child there. I suppose though, come September it has to be worth a punt.
