The Daily Telegraph reports that 40-year-old Stephen Ireland, who is also the founder of gay pride in Surrey, is facing a total of 37 charges, including rape of a child under 13, six counts of making indecent photographs of children and two counts of causing a child to engage in sexual activity.
For 15 of the alleged offences, the founder of Pride in Surrey was jointly charged alongside David Sutton, 26.
Mr. Ireland was listed as a director for Pride in Surrey until June of this year, while Sutton was a former volunteer for the charity.
Mr. Sutton, who, like Mr. Ireland is from Addlestone, Surrey, was also charged with a further seven offences, including three counts of making indecent photographs of children.
They were both remanded in custody to appear at Guildford Crown Court on 12th September 2024.However, both defendants are innocent till proven guilty.
Schools allowed this?
Primary and secondary schools across the UK have allowed different people with ridiculous ideologies to either teach or run programmes to further confuse children about gender.
This news raises serious concerns about how organisations like Educate and Celebrate, which had access to young children across the country were allowed to operate, while Rev. Dr. Bernard Randall, a Christian chaplain, was reported to counter-terrorism and dismissed for voicing concerns about the group.
The charges against Mr. Ireland follow revelations that Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, was “plainly wrong” to support the decision of the Bishop of Derby, Rt. Rev Libby Lane, in blacklisting Dr. Randall as a risk to children.
In the meantime, Dr. Randall’s career and other Christian professionals who dared to speak against sodomy have been severely damaged, while Educate and Celebrate has been mired in controversy, leading to the group’s quiet dissolution in January after an understated announcement from the Charity Commission.
The Bible says,
Psalm 127: Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

‘Thousands of schools’ sign up for ‘diversity award’
Thousands of nurseries, primary, secondary schools, colleges and businesses have signed up to ‘pride in equity, diversity and inclusion award’, according to C&E.
According to their website, ‘Online whole staff training will cost £400. A day’s Pride workshop for children will cost £500. Everyone attending Educate & Celebrate training, school staff and children, will be taught about ‘gender identity’ a belief that has no proof and can only be explained by resorting to gender stereotypes.
‘The programme costs £1,800 and includes training for all staff and an action plan on how to receive a gold, silver or bronze award at the end of the 12 months.’
Schools such as Cockton Hill Junior School, Cockfield Primary School, Timothy Hackworth school, Esh Winning Primary School, Copeland Road Primary School, Chatswoth Infant School and a host of others are recipient of the ‘diversity’ award.
Taxpayers funds spent to confuse children
In 2015, Educate and Celebrate received a £214,000 grant from the Department of Education to roll out their program nationwide.
In a promotional video, which was later deleted after Dr. Randall’s story gained media attention, Dr. Elly Barnes, the chief executive of the Educate & Celebrate charity, described E&C’s approach in schools, stating:’The whole concept of Educate and Celebrate is to treat everyone equally and fairly, and really the bottom line is to completely smash heteronormativity. That’s what we want to do, so that kids can grow up and be who they are. We are all more productive and so much happier when we can be ourselves.
‘So we completely encourage intersectional ways of teaching, lots of pedagogies and usualising, so making LGBT+ people an everyday occurrence within the school. And that can come through simply teachers being ‘out’, it can come through the curriculum, it can come through what you are putting on the walls, and how you are engaging with your community, and that’s our goal.’
Further, it has since been revealed that Dr. Barnes told teachers that they should be moving toward a ‘gender-free model’ in a 90-minute lecture organised by the National Education Union (NEU).
She said it was permissible not to tell parents if a pupil declares themselves to be transgender, and also said that terms such as “boys’, “girls”, “son” and “mother” should be replaced with the gender-neutral words, such as “pupils”, ‘students’, “child” and “parent”.
Dr Barnes also told the webinar, called Getting the Language Right for 2022, that instead of gendered terms, staff should be referred to as “teacher” or “headteacher” followed by their surname.
The Bible says,
Deuteronomy 6:7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

Schools paying to indoctrinate children
Schools who sign up for the Celebrate and Educate award pay to be recognised for indoctrinating children.
According to reports: ‘Schools will have to run it past the school’s finance secretary. Membership costs £50, access to their PRIDE Youth Network costs £200. For £1,750 your school could join the PRIDE in Inclusion Award Programme which will buy, among other things, online and face-to-face support for a year, two continuing professional development (CPD) days, a staff meeting organised by an Educate & Celebrate trainer, a book collection, poster and other merchandise.
‘Or schools could buy in just the CPD training, the price is negotiable, where staff will ‘develop a deeper understanding of sexual orientation, gender and gender identity, why it is necessary to include these protected characteristics in our curriculum’.
Lies and cover ups
For years, E&C has been featured on multiple primary school websites as an Ofsted-recognised ‘best practice’ programme. However, in 2023, it was revealed that this was a lie. The school inspectorate ordered E&C to remove any reference to Ofsted from its website.
Following a series of controversies from encouraging three-year-olds to question their gender to pushing to replace ‘Sir’ and ‘Miss’ with gender-neutral terms – the charity shut down.
Meanwhile, E&C has also been removed from the UK Government page.
