One of our supporters has successfully challenged her children’s school on their use of the Genderbread figure in #RSE. This graphic goes against latest @educationgovuk guidelines.

The new @educationgovuk guidelines state that external resources used by schools must be ‘evidence-based’ & that ‘materials which suggest that non-conformity to gender stereotypes should be seen as synonymous with having a different gender identity should not be used’ #edutwitter
We thank her for sharing this so that other #parents & #teachers are able to adapt for their own use. We are a grassroots movement who rely on sharing skills & resources. Please see previous thread incorporating concerning use of the genderbread graphic.

*** New Post ***

On @BrookCharity & their ill advised plans to use “masturbation as a tool for sex education in #RSE.

A #PublicInquiry is required into why so many adults failed in their #safeguarding responsibilities to call out harmful materials.

safeschoolsallianceuk.net/2024/07/14/wha…
. @BrookCharity was one of 100 organisations to sign a letter objecting to @Conservatives & @educationgovuk attempts to safeguard children from their damaging & dangerous #RSE resources. We have previously raised concerns about many of the signatories. rshe.uk
@BrookCharity @Conservatives @educationgovuk The letter to @educationgovuk objecting to attempts to introduce safeguards to #RSE materials has been signed by @barnardos. We have previously critiqued their resources for a lack of safeguarding. #Edutwitter #WomenEd #SafeguardingFail safeschoolsallianceuk.net/sdm_downloads/…

‘ “My recommendation as @ChildrensComm is that we need a #SafeguardingFirst approach to #RSHE & that is the way through this current impasse that seems to be in place because of very polarised views to how sex education should be taught.’

We are pleased to see @Rachel_deSouza finally agree with us. We have been advocating for the importance of safeguarding first #RSE for a very long time, perhaps now she will meet with us to discuss this? #Edutwitter #WomenEd
. @Rachel_deSouza says “I cannot see that anybody would think that children shouldn’t be taught the basics of sex education & how to keep themselves safe.” Nor can we Rachel, with the caveat that #safeguarding is an adult responsibility that should never be abdicated to children.
But that’s not what this is about, is it @Rachel_deSouza? When we have spoken to parents who tell us they’re against #RSE, discussion reveals that actually they have no concerns with their children being taught things such as puberty & reproduction. Their objections are to unscientific & anti #safeguarding materials that have been allowed to flood an unregulated market. Profit should have never been allowed to trump child protection. #Edutwitter #WomenEd

Joshua Sutcliffe: We have seen many of you supporting Mr Sutcliffe.
We absolutely do not.
Here is why:
We apply #safeguarding to everyone, equally. ‘Misgendering’ is not the main issue here.
#Edutwitter #SafeguardingFail #LGBT #PSHEPeeps dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…
We agree with family law barrister @SVPhillimore. Breaching a child’s confidentiality on TV is unacceptable. We would like to read the judgement in full, but if that would also expose an individual child, it should not be published. We always prioritise #safeguarding children.
We have been made aware of this blog. All at Safe Schools Alliance find these views abhorrent. That does not mean he should not be allowed to express them. However, conflating gay & non-marital sex with rape & paedophilia is a #safeguarding concern. joshuasutcliffe.com/homosexuality

*** New Report ***

We have sent this independent report to press, peers, think tanks, @victor_madrigal at @UN & @Commonswomequ. We encourage you to read & send to your own schools, MPs & local safeguarding boards. We warn you it’s a difficult read. #SafeguardingFail #PolicyFail
Quote for press is: Tanya Carter Spokeswoman for Safe Schools Alliance said “This alarming, but sadly unsurprising, research sets out how long-established child safeguarding principles are being effectively dismantled. This leaves all children at risk…
Adults, professionally charged with the protection of children, have failed in their duty to identify this and this abdication of responsibility has left generations of children at risk of harm. Children are being left to navigate a minefield of predatory behaviour online…

Thread for ‘but is this happening in schools’ #Edutwitter. Yes it is. Firstly personal testimony: “the school nurse had referred her to the school counsellor [who] informed [her] that a hatred of one’s breasts could be an indicator of a non-binary” safeschoolsallianceuk.net/our-stories/ou…
More testimony: “I am utterly horrified at what was taught at a PSHE lesson at my school recently. It was to a group of children, most are 11-12 years old. It is so, so much worse than I thought.” #Edutwitter #DiverseEd #LGBT

safeschoolsallianceuk.net/our-stories/ou…
More personal testimony: “We did request to see their transgender policy and it was kafkaesque – it repeatedly conflated sex & gender… & downplayed the effects of binders, blockers and hormones” #Edutwitter #WomeEd #PSHEPeeps

. @BrookCharity is one of the providers we frequently hear complaints about from both parents & teachers. Advising children to watch porn is not what they were expecting from #RSE. They want children taught about harms & how to have a healthy relationships as adults. #edutwitter ImageImage
To be clear what people are taking issue with, is not porn being discussed with teenagers, it is the seeming to recommend it, rather than educating on the inherent harms & exploitation. #edutwitter #WomenEd #PSHEPeeps @Miss_Snuffy @CEASEorgUK @RealGeoffBarton @BrookCharity ImageImageImage
This is what we have written on porn. Why are you not educating children on the harms & exploitation in porn @BrookCharity? Children deserve accurate information. #Edutwitter #WomenEd #PSHEPeeps safeschoolsallianceuk.net/2021/04/11/por…
