Children: Gender Dysphoria
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many submissions her Department received to the consultation entitled Gender questioning children: draft schools and colleges guidance, open from 19 December 2023 to 12 March 2024.
Answered by Catherine McKinnell
The public consultation entitled ‘Guidance for Schools and Colleges: Gender Questioning Children’ received over 15,000 responses.
The government is clear that it is vitally important that teachers have clear guidance, which is why the department will look carefully at the consultation responses over the autumn before responding formally and setting out the next steps to take the Gender Questioning guidance forward.
