'They reveal how children ar being encouraged to embrace a transgender identity by other pupils, with the #connivance of teachers & often, deliberately, without the knowledge of their parents'
(Andrew Moffat taught his gender identity embedding CHIPS resource secretly for 2yrs)
Parents of school-age children may already suspect tht sumthng is rotten in the state of r Relationshps & Sex Education (RSE); they might baulk whn their kids come home parroting unscientific dogma, inclu. the denial of biological sex & the existence of infinite gender identities
But many will have no idea how completely their schools have been #captured by trans #LobbyGroups, how #invested teachers are in this #ideology, and what this means for their children.
That’s why it’s so important that we listen to the whistleblowers
First, there is the mother of a boy with autism, ADHD, epilepsy, mental health problems (including suicidal ideation) and learning difficulties, who was encouraged by girls at his school to wear a skirt.
This is a classic example of social affirmation, an incredibly powerful psychological intervention centred on accepting a child’s new identity, name, & pronouns.
The goal is to cement the sense that they are “born in the wrong body”

& that they require medical intervention to be happy; it is a foreclosure which makes further exploration (& a rowing back from the pathway of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones & surgery) almost impossible

But there’s a more sinister side to this story. As pioneering transgender researcher Dr Lisa Littman, investigative reporter Abigail Shrier & many others have noted, autistic children are especially vulnerable to transgender ideology; studies have shown that transgender & gender
studies have shown that transgender and gender non-conforming people are six times more likely to be autistic. (Many more autistic people go undiagnosed, so this is likely to be a significant underestimate.)
Transgender activists say this is a moral panic; that no one can be convinced to be trans, and that these concerns are simply a rehashing of the tired old trope of “homosexual recruitment” from the 1980s.
This view — that rapid-onset gender dysphoria is contagious and occurs in clusters — is backed by a range of both anecdotal & research evidence from both sides of the Atlantic. Sometimes, it even makes the papers, as in the case of the Brighton school with over 70 “transgender
as in the case of the Brighton school with over 70 “transgender and gender non-conforming kids”. Perhaps unsurprisingly given the transmissibility of gender dysphoria, we also have testimony from another parent with a child at the same school mentioned above.
This girl was also diagnosed autistic; like so many children struggling with the onset of puberty today, she was self-harming & had started wearing a binder to flatten her breasts. Her belief in her transgender identity was bolstered by other girls,
Her belief in her transgender identity was bolstered by other girls, who not only supported her delusion that she was a boy — they even started targeting her parents.
The mother goes on to describe the immense pressure these friends placed on her daughter to pursue her transgender journey identity. They urged her to tell her parents and teachers that she was trans, told her she would feel better once she started taking testosterone
My daughter is seeing a clinical psychologist now. During a family session we asked where she first heard of transgender issues; she said “at school”. I am now wondering what is being taught with regards to gender ideology at that school?
Parents who challenge teachers on transgender ideology in schools are used to being ignored or, worse, branded as hate-filled transphobes intent on immiserating their offspring by denying their new identity. Meanwhile, schools broadcast their LGBTQIA+ credentials & relationships
Meanwhile, schools broadcast their LGBTQIA+ credentials and relationships with lobbyists like #Stonewall and Gendered Intelligence, the same organisations who are quick to smear those who are critical of gender ideology as bigots and “sexual racists”
What’s most frustrating about schools’ support for gender ideology and the bullies who promote it is that they are ignoring government guidance on planning lessons on relationships, sex and health.
This couldn't be clearer, advising teachers not 2 reinforce harmful stereotypes by suggesting children r a different gender based on their personality, interests or clothes, & tht they shouldn't suggest 2 gender non-conforming children tht their personality or their body is wrong
The only way to end bullying is to stand up to it, but there are few obvious routes to challenging school policies.
In the UK, the only formal power parents have to challenge lesson content is by religious objection through the #SACRE system; there is no other official channel
the only formal power parents have to challenge lesson content is by religious objection through the SACRE system; there is no other official channel that enables them to hold schools to account in the same way as in the United States.
But that doesn’t mean parents are powerless.
Write to your school to ask if they are aware of & are following government guidance; if you know of teachers actively championing gender ideology, challenge them. Write to Chairs of Governors, to your MP,
Write to Chairs of Governors, to your MP, to Academy Trust CEOs and to LEA Directors of Children’s Services. Read the huge range of practical and educational resources available from TransgenderTrend and Safe Schools Alliance, and the views of affected parents at Our Duty.
When parents pull together, they can often expel gender ideology. There have been two notable success stories: first, Safe Schools Alliance forced Oxfordshire County Council to withdraw the trans toolkit after threatening legal action; meanwhile, parents at a school in
meanwhile, parents at a school in Rhondda Cynon Taf were similarly successful.
If you doubt why u should do this, imagine your daughter w stubble, double mastectomy scars & infertile; imagine your son w breasts & a wound between his legs. Plenty of us don't have 2 imagine
If they do not take their duty of care seriously, then it’s up to parents to remind them that sticks & stones may break your bones, but words can do damage that lasts a lifetime
Activist teachers cannot continue cheerleading for these barbarities unchallenged. If they dont take their duty of care seriously, then it’s up 2 parents 2 remind them that sticks & stones may break your bones, but words can do damage that lasts a lifetime thecritic.co.uk/are-children-b…

If someone confesses a belief in values deemed to be ‘extreme’, they are on the path to violence and should be referred to #Prevent; those who do not or no longer believe in these values are deemed ‘safe’.
But there is scant evidence to suggest that such an approach works
The focus on ideological factors, as found in Prevent, ignores a host of other causes behind violence, and assumes a linear progression between #thought and #action.
It also means that it is almost impossible to assess whether Prevent is having any positive impact
It also means that it is almost impossible to assess whether Prevent is having any positive impact – while pre-criminal approaches may be comforting for demonstrating an industrious response against terrorism, it is almost impossible to know if it is the right one.
The findings show an absence of a systematic and coordinated plot to take over these schools and an absence of any concerted and deliberate plot to promote radicalisation and violent extremism of Muslim children in these schools or elsewhere
language used to talk about the issues of “radicalisation” & “extremism” is itself the subject of considerable debate (Kundnani 2012; Lynch 2013). There is also a difficulty in understanding fully these issues cos there is a lack of an objective or universally accepted definition
As soon as the media took hold of the allegations, there was huge publicity about the promotion of extremism, radicalisation & terrorism.
At the time, the press also expressed many irrational anxieties about these Muslim majority schools (Arthur 2015). Even though, from the
#Prevent-laced No Outsiders, ideological marriage made in heaven to target the Muslamic Radicals embedded in nursery kids,
the epicentre school is reborn after the scandal & the 'enemy within' removed

It also provided an opportunity to discuss and generate a dialogue about the significance of the 'Trojan Horse’ scandal and the duty placed on schools after the scandal to promote Fundamental British Values (FBV) in the promotion of #democracy.
Speakers analysed how both are reproducing narratives of racial discrimination & inequalities in a context that is informed by minoritising communities, #problematising specific religious #values, & essentialising the signification of social, religious, & cultural identities.
