Parents to sue over school trans guidance

The Christian parents of two boys are seeking a judicial review in connection with the Cornwall Schools Transgender Guidelines, which encourage children to dress as they choose to reflect their 'true gender'.

The document – first published in 2015 – defines 'true gender' as 'the gender that a person truly feels they are inside'.

Nigel and Sally Rowe (see photo) are to bring proceedings following the Department of Education's refusal to review the guidelines. They first raised concerns with their Isle of Wight CofE primary school in 2017 after a boy started coming to school dressed as a girl.
