The British Education Secretary has said that parents have a right to be told what their children are being taught in sex education class. Her comments come after copyright was cited as a reason not to tell parents what their children were being taught in a number of schools. Material from the outside is sometime taught in sex education classes and the companies behind the material sometimes say they do not want rival organisations to see it.
The Education Secretary, Gillian Keegan, said the right of parents to know what their children are being taught trumps copyright concerns.
The Times reports: “MPs and parents campaigned for action after it emerged that some materials asked children whether they were ‘planet non-binary’ and taught them about breast binders and a ‘galaxy’ of genders.”
