Controversial UK School Guidelines Challenge Transgender Acceptance

UK schools will not be required to use students' preferred pronouns and must inform parents when a pupil requests to change their gender, according to new guidelines. The guidelines emphasize a parent-focused approach to gender transitioning and state that schools do not have a general duty to allow students to socially transition. Restrooms, changing rooms, and some sports will be separated based on birth sex, and single-sex schools will have the right to refuse admission to those who are gender questioning. The guidelines are now open for public consultation and have raised concerns about potential legal risks for schools.
