I thought this article by Michael Merrick was outstanding. It challenges some feminist shibboleths, certainly, but looks hard at how practices in schools have contributed to the scandals of grooming gangs and gender ideology.
But my business is schooling, and I fear that we have uncomfortable truths of our own to confront. We do not find ourselves immune from this catastrophe. We form a majority part of that infrastructure which exists to support every child and keep them safe – they spend more time with us than any other organ of the state. And this has happened to children in our schools, across the country, and at a scale it is difficult to fathom. Children were being picked up from the school gates, abusers were attending schools at the end of the day hoping to snare their next victim, children within schools were fully aware that their peers were being abused, and at times it was “healthcare services” initiated or provided from within schools that, however well-meaning, facilitated and mitigated the abuse children endured.
