Children, facts and truth first in Scottish schools.

Gave evidence to Parliament on a statistic that rested on 41 pupils, which a review for the UK Government Equalities Office later called “unlikely to be representative”.

A vote the record does not show.

£1.68 million of public money.

A conflict of interest flagged by a Government group.

The same people sat on every side of the table, then and now.

Time for Inclusive Education (TIE) campaigned for LGBT inclusive education in Scottish schools.

Helped design the policy. Funded by grant, not tender. Then evaluated its own work.

One mother. One voice. One powerful result. 🇮🇪

A mother in Ireland spoke up, did her research, presented her evidence to the school principal, and the progressive flag came down.

Never underestimate the power of an informed, courageous parent.

Don’t stay silent. Speak up. You might be surprised what one voice can achieve! 👏

“In that context, the notion of consent is impossible” this from the same Harriet Harman who in 1978 (NCCL) said a photo of a naked child should not count as indecent unless it could be proved the child had suffered harm.

The real conversion practices are happening in schools and being hidden from parents.

Activist teachers won’t be targeted by the Conversion Practices proposals, but parents who raise concerns will be, and could face five years in jail and unlimited fines if they complain.

@zeno001 @scotgov It's not the first time they've cried poor publically.

They allegedly submitted 17 grant applications for funding totalling £913,523.65, of which only 4 succeeded for £79,000 in 25/26.

Aberdeenshire Council and NHS Grampian remain their largest supporters.

Four Pillars, the Aberdeen LGBT+ charity behind QuEST in our schools (akin to the LGBT YS Charter) and NHS Grampian’s gender clinic waiting-list support, has stated it may close on Monday.

[OECD Education @OECDEduSkills]

Should AI be marking your child's schoolwork?

More teachers around the world are turning to AI.

Of those who use AI, around one in four use it to mark student work, according to new OECD data.

Do you think teachers using AI is a good idea?

Teaching is gloriously human. It’s noticing the raised eyebrow, the hesitation, the spark of understanding. It’s knowing when to pause, push, explain or simply listen. No script or App can replace the craft of a great teacher.

As Scotland’s NHRI, we monitor, listen, speak up for all our rights and respond when things go wrong. But what does that look like in practice?

Nick Page is already off from Qualifications Scotland while the new curriculum is still in draft and the real qualification changes aren’t due until 2031–32.

Another leadership exit mid-reform. The “reset” is still looking wobbly.

Education Scotland’s new draft curriculum guidance, Building Scotland’s Curriculum, describes a number of “non-negotiables” that schools must consider, “coming from both statutory and policy commitments”.

Listed among those policy commitments is the National Approach to LGBT-Inclusive Education, which, with the Anti-Racism in Education Programme and the Gender Equality in Education Taskforce, is said to “support an inclusive, decolonised and diverse curriculum”.

Section 3.6 states that this work “continues to inform the development” of the new Know-Do-Understand curriculum, so that it is embedded “within the tools that teachers and practitioners use to plan learning”.

The same section lists “sexual orientation”, “gender and sex” and “LGBT families” among the types of diversity schools should consider. It suggests schools co-design the curriculum with pupil “LGBT groups”, asks whether staff have taken the national LGBT-inclusive professional learning, and directs them to https://t.co/jxTxG4ArKf, a website managed by Time for Inclusive Education on behalf of the Scottish Government.

Section 3.6 mentions parents only once, as “lone parents” in a list of family types. It says nothing about informing parents or seeking their consent. Across the whole draft, “LGBT” appears eight times; “parents” four.

The guidance is due to be adopted from August 2028. Feedback is open to “all teachers and practitioners” until February 2027. We can find no invitation for parents to contribute.

Comments now turned off.

Your role is to improve what happens in classrooms, not produce more management frameworks.

Teachers and parents want clear focus on the basics, not another strategic priority written in consultant-speak.

"Shockingly, even children young enough to still be in primary school are being told they can “opt out” of their biological sex, making the type of conversations Maria had with her daughter even more crucial."
