Teachers’ union will lobby for promotion of transsexualism
A major teachers’ union has said it will lobby for the promotion of transsexualism in single-sex schools.
At its annual conference in Liverpool, the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL) passed a motion to campaign for funding and provide support for ‘gender-questioning’ pupils.
Staff at boys’ and girls’ schools across the country told the gathering that steps are already being taken to modify uniform policies and changing rooms, while criticising other schools for not complying.
