“People
are calling us every single day because of the situation in schools,
parents, even students sometimes, and teachers who are very
concerned about pupils or perhaps materials that they are being told
that they have to teach,”
Authored by Patricia Devlin: A
primary school teacher sacked after refusing to use an eight-year-old
child’s trans pronouns has said her only intention was to safeguard the
pupil.
The
teacher from England, who can’t be named to protect the child’s
identity, told The Epoch Times she had raised concerns about the
potential damage social transition could have on the young pupil.
The
woman—who is now taking legal action against Nottinghamshire County
Council over her dismissal—claimed she was stonewalled by school chiefs
after raising concerns over the welfare of the eight-year-old.
She
was dismissed last year after raising a number of concerns regarding
the facilitation of a new school pupil into her class who wanted to be
treated as a boy.
