A Christian teacher is at risk of losing her career for refusing to promote and teach extreme “LGBTQ” ideology at a Church of England (CofE) secondary school. Glawdys Leger is being criticised for expressing her biblical beliefs on human sexuality in response to student questions, according to the Telegraph<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Glawdys Leger<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The 43-year-old, had been a specialist Modern Foreign Languages teacher for 12 years before she was sacked by Bishop Justus CofE School in Bromley, Kent in May 2022.<\/p>\n

Ms. Leger asserts that she was unfairly treated and likened to a ‘dangerous criminal’ because of her decision to decline to teach extreme and politically partisan “LGBTQ” lessons, which had been incorporated into Religious Education (RE) lessons, to year 7 pupils at the school.<\/p>\n

Specifically, she expressed her biblical beliefs regarding human sexuality that ‘God believes humans are born male and female and that LGBTQI practice is sinful.’ This was in response to questions posed by her students.<\/p>\n

The Aquinas Church of England Education Trust <\/b><\/a>subsequently reported Ms Leger to the Teaching Regulation Agency (TRA) because she allegedly upset one pupil by sharing her views on “LBGTQ”<\/p>\n

On the basis of upset, not harm to a child, the TRA decided to take forward a case against her.<\/p>\n

Ms Leger faces a fitness to practise hearing at the TRA\u2019s headquarters in Coventry, the outcome of which could see her barred from the profession indefinitely.<\/p>\n

Uphold Christian freedom and repeal ‘woke’ laws \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n

Religious education (RE) entitled \u2018Who Am I\u2019<\/h2>\n

After starting work at the school in 2017, Ms Leger had seen a continuous increase in the promotion of “LGBTQ” identities and other contentious ethical and political issues within the “Christian” school.<\/p>\n

As well as language lessons, Ms Leger also had to teach RE, but discovered that teaching material included extreme content on gender identity with themes that begin to suggest to children that humans can be born in the wrong body.<\/p>\n

Materials for RE entitled \u2018Who Am I\u2019 included introducing children in Year 7 to gender identities, such as pansexual, asexual, intersex and transgender.<\/p>\n

The lessons were also designed to encourage \u2018allyship\u2019, which the materials described as: \u201cTypically a non-queer person who supports and advocates for the queer community.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said, ‘Presentation slides integrated the idea that a condition of friendship and \u2018allyship\u2019 at the school would involve defending and promoting any \u2018protected characteristics\u2019, including any gender identities.<\/p>\n

Gender identity is not a protected characteristic under the Equality Act 2010, which makes such teaching misleading and partisan.’<\/p>\n

Ask us to come and speak at your church \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n

Be not deceived<\/h2>\n

This is a wake up call for parents not to take their eyes off children just because they are enrolled in Christian schools. More because sodomy ideologies have been sold to schools across Britain in the guise of sexuality education and the promotion of “inclusivity”.<\/p>\n

Surely, a school built on Christian values is expected to uphold Biblical standards. However, this is not the case. The time to be a watchman, a teacher and guardian to children is now.<\/p>\n

The Bible says,
\nProverbs 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.<\/b><\/p>\n

Deviating from UK education policy<\/h2>\n

According to the UK education policy<\/b><\/a>, one of its objectives is ensuring children learn the basics of literacy and numeracy, as well as transferable skills.<\/p>\n

‘We will build on our current engagement in pre-primary education, in recognition of its role in preparing children for the classroom and securing foundation skills.’<\/p>\n

From the government’s own drafted and published policy, where is the correlation between ‘ the basics of literacy, and “LGBTQ” propaganda?<\/p>\n

Is it not presenting a biased perspective that children are only allowed to learn or accept the existence of different genders (which is clearly non-existence) while teaching them the truth is deemed as unlawful?<\/p>\n

The Bible says,
\nGenesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.<\/b><\/p>\n
