Parents have lost a legal challenge against the teaching of young children about gender identity and sex in primary schools across Wales, with Mrs Justice Steyn rejecting a judicial review.
Campaigners launched a judicial review in the High Court against the Welsh Government’s new relationships and sexuality education curriculum. The curriculum was launched in September and sees the mandatory teaching of relationships and sexuality education to pupils from the age of seven.
The two-day legal challenge, which was heard in November at the Civil Justice Centre in Cardiff, was brought by Public Child Protection Wales, which says the new curriculum is inappropriate for primary age children.
