"Research showed that teenagers with autism or anorexia as well as those who had endured difficult childhoods were more likely to say they wanted to change sex." Some of the evidence presented in court from our side has been published in @thetimes today. thetimes.co.uk/article/autist…
Prof Gillberg said "teenagers were finding online transgender sites that suggested their problems would be solved if they changed sex. Autistic teenagers, he said, were particularly vulnerable to seizing on a single answer “to the lifelong identity problems they have suffered”.
“Thousands of adolescents are being offered ‘treatment’ with puberty blockers, sex-contrary hormones, and then, finally for some, with a variety of surgical procedures." But "non-existent research evidence that these treatments are of any long-term benefit to the young people."

The funding was due to come to an end in March 2020, it hasn't been 'axed.' These 'anti bullying' schemes have been a means to instigate a re-education programme for teachers & children, complete with a whole new lexicon of words and 'correct' language. bbc.co.uk/news/education…
Under the guise of 'anti bullying', same sex attraction has been erased and replaced with 'same gender' orientation. Lesbians can now be defined as male people with a penis. Lesbians who don't accept this are 'transphobic.' So much for 'anti bullying'.
Young people who don't conform to sex stereotypes are given a 'gender identity' model of understanding themselves which means a girl who is not 'feminine' must identify as Not a Girl. She becomes 'non-binary' or 'trans.' Otherwise she is 'cisgender' which means 'conforming.'

New training module from @HEIW_NHS states: "the main purpose is to achieve a better alignment of an individual’s gender identity with the physical body and/or social gender role". Let's be clear that this means medical and/or social transition.
gpcpd.heiw.wales/clinical/gende…
'Gender identity' (described as 'an internal sense of self') is taken as a fixed immutable reality which must be matched by a 'social gender role' (the specific role for girls v boys is undefined) and the physical body (biologically male or female and impossible to change).
The section on children & young people states: "the only way to avoid damaging their well-being is to embrace their identification and how they navigate the gendered world in the moment." This is a very strong claim. Where is the research and evidence to support it?

Expert analysis of the results of making 'sex' a self-id question in the census, by @ProfAliceS, @lnmackenzie1 & @janeclarejones. We already have one example of the seriously misleading results of a survey based on self-id of sex (thread).
We compared the Stonewall School Report 2012 (data gathered by sex) with the report of 2017 (data gathered by self-id). The School Report 2017 finding that 45% of trans young people have attempted suicide, has had a huge influence on policy making. transgendertrend.com/stonewall-scho…
We calculated the number of actual females who responded to the 2017 survey, and we found an anomaly. All other general population studies show a significant increase in rates of self-harm in girls since 2012. LGBT young people, in every other study, are particularly at risk.

Our schools pack is fully compatible with the new DfE guidance. First published in February 2018, it has been downloaded over 15,000 times and over 1,500 hard copies have been sent out to parents and schools. The response has been overwhelmingly positive. transgendertrend.com/product/school…
Our safeguarding concerns guide looks at examples of unsafe practice in guidance from organisations signposted by the DfE, including promising confidentiality to a child promotion of off-label drugs and erosion of consent. transgendertrend.com/product/safegu…

An excellent breakdown of the new @educationgovuk guidance and its practical application in schools in @Telegraph today. A very useful article for all teachers. telegraph.co.uk/education-and-…
First point: no harmful stereotypes.
Second point: using age-appropriate resources.
