Parents have reported that children have been grilled ‘every term’ about their gender

British schoolchildren have been threatened with detention should they “misgender” staff as institutions across the country face a surge in wokery.

Speaking at the LGB Alliance conference in London, concerned parents and former teachers claim they had witnessed “activist teachers” promoting gender ideology in schools.


One parent who also runs PSHE Brighton, a campaign group for families worried about how sex education is taught in schools, explained how one 11-year-old was punished for misgendering their teacher.

“We’ve had Year 7s who are innocently going ‘Yes miss, I’ll do that,’ the parent said.

“Bang, they are in what’s called a non detention … like lockdown, something like that where they lock them up after school.

“Two years in a row the Year 7s have been given this punishment for misgendering this teacher in their first three days at school.”

The parent continued to share that one young woman became confused about their gender because teachers questioned pupils at least once a term.

“We’ve got a really well-rounded young woman, she’s now 19,” the parent said.

“And she said the reason I was gender confused was because we were surveyed by the teachers at least every term, if not every month.

“Every single one of those surveys would say, ‘Are you confused about your gender?‘ Don’t you really think you should be a boy? Are you worried you might be a boy?’”

The comments come as the Department for Education is yet to deliver transgender guidance for schools, first promised in 2018.

Although they have promised to publish guidance by the end of the year, they missed their own previous deadline scheduled for the end of the summer term.

“We’ve been repeatedly clear about the importance of biological sex and that contested views should not be taught as fact,” a Government spokesperson said.

“Schools and colleges must uphold public trust and are expected to maintain high standards of ethics and behaviour both within and outside of school and colleges.”

However, chief executive of the LGB Alliance Kate Barker slammed the Government response claiming the delay in guidance has been “exploited”.

“Teachers and parents have been waiting six years for schools’ trans guidance,” Barker said.

“This delay has been exploited by gender identity activist organisations…to introduce unscientific, unevidenced, and over-sexualised teaching resources into schools.”
