GC teacher and mum battling the gender woo

@TaraEaston5 @EtienneTheWolf @Transgendertrd I’m assuming the latter. The former would be single sex.

@KatjaInTheAct @EtienneTheWolf @Transgendertrd Completely fine, an entirely reasonable exception. Sex of pupils would likely be clear. I’m concerned about pupils ‘living in stealth’ as per KCSIE draft. Pupils, parents and staff likely unaware. Massive safeguarding issues.

@Transgendertrd In both the above cases the sex of the child would be clear to all.

[nopetynope 🟪⬜️🟩 @mogcat34]

@Transgendertrd Yes, my understanding was that it was to allow e.g. the daughters of teachers at an all boys independent school without a reciprocal fee agreement with a girls school to be educated close to home. Or where specialist subject teaching otherwise wouldn’t be viable.

@stuartf100 @Transgendertrd I’m fairly confident a girls school in Yorkshire is being sued on this very issue.

@WRNHerts_Cambs Victoria Collins (Harpenden and Berkhamsted) has signed too. 🙄

I hope all Britons who loathe racism will RT this in the light of the vile attacks on British Jews.

@nportocarero @KingBobIIV And those interviewed (online) as part of the admissions process may well still be 17. A female relative of mine had exactly this experience. Fortunately she had googled him in advance so knew what to expect.

@KateClanchy1 She was my headmistress and I adored her. May she rest in peace.

@MShipworth @MForstater @SexMattersOrg So many of us, fighting on so many fronts. It’s exhausting but your bravery is inspiring. Thank you so much.

[nopetynope 🟪⬜️🟩 @mogcat34]

@SexMattersOrg Done. Thank you.

@Emhoward2210 @ISBI3 @_ConnieShaw It does matter if you’re the teacher responsible for safeguarding everyone on a residential fieldtrip!

[nopetynope 🟪⬜️🟩 @mogcat34]

@RunningWomanXX @Transgendertrd Yes, I agree. Receptionist I spoke to said I was the first person to have ever raised it but did say she would take to Practice Manager. I make a point of speaking to someone about this every time I come across it. If not me, then who, right?

[nopetynope 🟪⬜️🟩 @mogcat34]

@RunningWomanXX @Transgendertrd Completely agree but 18 yr old daughter doesn’t want to make a fuss. I made a withheld number call to the practice and, as gently as I could, pointed out that it didn’t exactly instill confidence as a parent sending a young adult away to university.

[nopetynope 🟪⬜️🟩 @mogcat34]

@Transgendertrd Rather concerningly Durham University’s medical centre registration form asks for gender identity - male, female, non-binary, prefer not to say - and whether this is the same as that assigned at birth - yes, no, prefer not to say. No question about sex.

[nopetynope 🟪⬜️🟩 @mogcat34]

@JeanHatchet @defiantwhinger Thank you. It was on a flagpole so I pointed out it needed planning permission, which they didn’t have. I offered to explain in person it was completely inappropriate, but they didn’t take me up on that. The colleague who put it up was very cross but no sign of it this year!

[nopetynope 🟪⬜️🟩 @mogcat34]

@SexMattersOrg @HJoyceGender @TalkTV Some signs of hope? Daughter’s university accommodation form application back in July included this question and qualifier.
