School video  is ‘abusive’

Kent

A Christian couple, who took their three children out of a Church of England school in Kent, said the church’s transgender policy document Valuing All God’s Children is being used against Christian parents.

Calvin and Nicola Watts removed their children after it emerged that a video featuring radical gender ideology had been shown to a class of eight-year-olds. However, following several complaints by parents, St Michael’s Cof E Primary School in Tenterden justified its gender ideology teaching, citing the CofE controversial guidance.

After removing their children, the Watts expressed concerns to the school that their children were being ‘politically indoctrinated’ and said they believed that showing the video was child abuse.
