We've put a statement out about what this means. The fact is it changes nothing but will give parents the legal backing to ensure their schools are following SG. They can no longer use the Equality Act to pretend a boy can be treated as a girl.
"Organisations are saying they need time to reflect on the Supreme Court ruling and review their policies. In the case of schools they should not need to. Regardless of what it said in the Equality Act, schools should have been reviewing all guidance from a safeguarding point of view and resisting changes that put children at risk. There is no justification for NASUWT to say that they are “scratching their heads”, and still need the government to provide clarity. There is no justification for the NEU to be demonstrating in London in protest at this ruling."
