‘Sex education guidelines will stigmatise religious people’
Proposed guidelines on Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) risk “ghettoising” religious beliefs, the Church of England has said.
From 2020, RSE will be compulsory for all secondary schools in England, with Relationships Education taught in all primaries.
In its response to the Department for Education’s consultation, which closed on Wednesday, the CofE warned the teaching will “problematise religion” and “exceptionalise people of faith”.
