You can learn more about us on our website. We are committed to high quality inclusive #RSE as an important part of #safeguarding. We campaign against homophobic, sexist, misogynistic, age inappropriate or politically partisan materials. #edutwitter #PSHE safeschoolsallianceuk.net/who-we-are/
Many of our members & supporters are lesbian or gay. They care passionately about improving things for the next generation, they have shared their stories “I spent my childhood & teenage years wishing I was a boy. I envied the boys their effortless power” safeschoolsallianceuk.net/our-stories/ou…
We have many resources to help both parents and teachers challenge poor practice in schools. There has been widespread undermining of #safeguarding in recent years; we are determined to restore it. #edutwitter #LGBT #WomenEd #PSHEPeeps #teacher5oclockclub safeschoolsallianceuk.net/schools-resour…
We work cross party & we lobby on the importance of safeguarding. Everyone involved in the care of children must work together to achieve the best possible outcomes for them. @educationgovuk @ChildrensComm @GillianKeegan @FeryalClark safeschoolsallianceuk.net/2022/09/25/dfe…
We support legal action to get inappropriate materials out of our schools. We have had some success but sadly there is a long way to go. Thank you for joining us, please look round our website & see what action you can take. #parenting #edutwitter #LGBT safeschoolsallianceuk.net/legal-action-a…

*** New Post ***

“Now independent research has shown that the Welsh #RSE Code was influenced by elements of Queer Theory that should concern parents.” @WG_Education @childcomwales @LauraJ4SWEast @MerchedCymru @LGBAllies_Cymru @WRNWales #edutwitter #LGBT safeschoolsallianceuk.net/2022/10/09/wel…
“Queer Theory is an academic field of study that aims to dismantle accepted social norms. This may not seem immediately concerning. However in this field any idea can be – and is – challenged, including the idea that children should not be sexually active.” #CurriculumForWales
“Queer Theory challenges boundaries that are put in place to preserve ‘oppressive’ ideas such as the importance of child safeguarding. This academic discussion is not something that should be allowed to direct the way schools teach children.” #CurriculumForWales #RSE #edutwitter

THREAD We are absolutely appalled at this latest ineptitude from @educationgovuk. This is not a ‘political flashpoint’ or a ‘culture war’ this is (once again) a serious, national failing of #safeguarding. @kitmalthouse as education secretary you need… thetimes.co.uk/article/006ef0…
to take a #safeguardingfirst approach. Not use highly vulnerable children as a political football using soundbites such as ‘common sense’. The @Conservatives have overseen the worst medical, child safeguarding & lobbying scandal, all rolled into one, this country has ever seen.
While this has unfolded before our eyes & members of the public have tirelessly done the job of @NSPCC, who have been in complete dereliction of duty, @UKLabour have also been missing in action & with notable exceptions such as @RosieDuffield1 & @ToniaAntoniazzi they have…

Informative speech from @SuellaBraverman to @Policy_Exchange. Stella’s stated aim was to provide ‘legal clarity’ Here are some highlights from her speech where she talks of her concern at laws being ‘misinterpreted’.

#edutwitter #WomenEd
@SuellaBraverman has seen many concerning examples of inclusion being used to trump fairness & incorrect interpretations of Equality Act 2010
@SuellaBraverman is clear that in England & Wales we do not have a system of ‘self ID’ for obtaining a gender recognition certificate.

THREAD Thank you @nmdacosta. We too were surprised to hear this. We all remember her dismal performance on the @MumsnetTowers where she refused to answer urgent questions on child #safeguarding. The only thing worse than Penny’s performance was when @NSPCC refused to show up.
Here are some of the questions we’ve been waiting since 2019 for @PennyMordaunt to answer:

1) Could you tell us more about [the enquiry into the rise in young girls experiencing gender dysphoria] and when the findings are likely to be released?  Three years later we do have…
the interim @thecassreview, but we don’t believe this is any thanks to Penny. The harm we read about, daily in our inbox continues to be devastating. #safeguardingfail #policyfail safeschoolsallianceuk.net/2022/03/26/the…

THREAD Yesterday Miriam Cates MP alongside @RosieDuffield1 @JackieDP secured an #RSEDebate. Opening speech here “The internet presents children with a vast array of false & damaging information about sex” #SafeguardingDisaster
Many of the #SafeguardingFail s we have hi-lighted over the past few years were included, alongside concerns raised by groups @Transgendertrd @BayswaterSG @ParentsForED @FamEdTrust. If you are new to these shocking failures we have links to further info on the cases mentioned.
BISH & School of Sexuality were mentioned, they both feature in our parents guide to #RSE & #PSHE (school of sexuality was previously sexplain) #edutwitter safeschoolsallianceuk.net/wp-content/upl…

Last day of June so we will be finishing off with a week of #SafeguardingFail s from the inbox.

Day 1: Contrary to legislation a #Cambridgeshire school has responded “it is not viable to provide copies of all curriculum materials to parents” to being asked to share resources.
Day 2: Again a refusal to share materials with parents on request, this time school in north of England. ‘Copyright’ was given as the excuse this time. As has been confirmed in today’s #RSEDebate this is incorrect. #SafeguardingFail #PSHEPeeps
Day 3: A school in the south of England has invited the school of sexuality in to discuss pleasure & make playdough vaginas with year 8 girls. They are denying to parents that they have the right to withdraw their children from these lessons. #SafeguardingFail #RSEDebate #PSHE
