Make LGBTQIA+ history and sex education part of school curriculum in the UK
Ensure that teachers receive vital LGBTQIA+ training and break the stigma by making both history and sex education more inclusive
A previous petition was rejected as it called for LGBTQIA+ and BAME history to be taught, and a petition is already in place for BAME history. This petition is focused on LGBTQIA+ in particular as it is so important the government make changes to the way children are taught about sexuality in schools.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.
You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
You may wish to sign this petition calling for the same action: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/303195
