Parents MUST be able to see sex education material their kids are being taught, Education Secretary demands

Some reports of kids learning of 72 genders

TEACHERS are today being ordered to show parents their sex education lessons  - “no ifs, no buts”. 

Education Secretary Gillian Keegan is writing to schools amid fears some kids are being taught woke ideas as gospel.

Some have reportedly been telling pupils there are as many as 72 genders as well as giving “graphic” classes on sex

The top Tory insists mums and dads have a right to know what their children are learning and should not be denied access.

Some schools previously withheld relationship and sex ed materials citing copyright law as a barrier.

But in her missive today Ms Keegan steamrollers that explanation as a load of rubbish.

She said last night: “No ifs, no buts and no more excuses.

“This government is acting to guarantee parents’ fundamental right to know what their children are being taught in sex and relationships education.

“Today I’m writing to schools and parents to debunk the copyright myth that parents cannot see what their children are being taught.

“Parents must be empowered to ask and schools should have the confidence to share.”

The Department for Education is currently reviewing the entire relationships and sex education curriculum.

Ms Keegan is also writing to parents outlining their rights to view sex ed materials if they wish.
