The current RSE programme was published 24 years ago and is widely acknowledged to be out of date. Among the topics that it does not provide for is that of LGBT+ relationships.
Delegates at the INTO Congress in Killarney heard that the Programme for Government contains a commitment to"develop inclusive and age-appropriate RSE and Social and Personal Health Education curricula across primary and post-primary levels" to include a programme on LGBT+ relationships. Rachel Allen, who teaches in a primary school in Tallaght, said that many teachers were very concerned about the lack of recognition and acknowledgement of LGBT relationships in schools here.

More rainbow brainwashing
There was a teacher on this platform last week declaring that she 'jumps on every opportunity to discuss LGBT+' with the children in her class. When I asked if the parents knew, she deleted the tweet.
Great. So they'll teach the facts that: - sex is binary and immutable; - no-one is 'born in the wrong body'; - a woman is an adult, human, female; and - a man cannot become a woman by saying he feels like he is one. Pity so few of our TDs understand those facts.
Fact based, is that scientific based ? No binary crap.
Thank Odin my kids are out of primary. No offence to teachers, they are trying to do whats best for the kids but the level of debate that adults have around this is still on going, cant see how they teach it to kids now
It should be a right of every child to receive age-appropriate, independent information on relationships and sex. Ideally provided by the HSE. My sex education started with the line “when a man and a woman really love each other…”. I’m gay so switched off 💁♀️
How about just letting kids be kids instead ?
They best quit teaching religion so as that’s pure fiction….
Can you let children be children? I'd prefer the Woke warriors kept their hands off my kids thanks
Sex is like driving, you just can't learn it from a book. Keep it out of class. Thank god I got none at school or from parents. I'm still learning 😁
So where does that leave the LGBT cult with their makey uppy science about being whatever gender you feel like at that time?
Seriously the teachers in Ireland have as much say at the government......... freeking tired of it
Something not right in these teachers heads. Seems the Far Left is trying to take over schools.
Ok groomer 🙄
Let kids be kids. For fuck sake. No need for this shite.
Facts matter
No doubting the Alphabet brigade will get a chapter in the book 🤡🤡🤡
So you'll teach children that there are only 2 genders then!
Grooming
Coming to a school near you
eimie21 Imagine having a debate about fact based science or fact based geography.
Teach the subjects that have always been thought. Sex education is the job of parents/ guardians. I’ll do my job as a parent, you do your job as a teacher.
Are they going to campaign for ‘fact-based’ religion too? Oh wait...
This the the parents job
Over my dead body
Be wary of those who want to talk to children about sexuality
If the word “trans” is mentioned to my children, I will hit the actual roof
Have the teachers consulted with parents, or are they just a bunch of groomers to
Christ 🙈
I would be extremely sceptical here, as with everything gone absolutely 'Woke Agendas' and liberal looney's what would actually be taught, and would it be against parents wishes and genuine concerns, 🤔
Get religion taught as fact out of schools, period! SeparateChurchAndState immediately.
It seems that most people here don’t realise they can opt out of RSE.
The only way forward
Roderic o Gorman and his paedo brigade are calling for it
It was already ‘Fact-Based’, and if the motivation was it being ‘fact-based’, then the arguments wouldn’t be so loaded with certain various bits of rubbish. - When they say “Fact-Based” here, it’s clearly a euphemism for something else.
Didn’t take long for the Groomers in the US to inspire the one’s over here. PRE PRIMARY!!!! Let kids be kids. A teachers job is to teach subjects, leave the parenting to the kids actual parents.
Fuck sake
I don’t trust teachers to speak to pupils about these issues
'72% of students feel unsafe in schools' - what a load of waffle. I would like to know how BelongTo carried out that survey. Sexuality & relationship education is not needed in primary schools where kids are too young.
Crazy stuff
Already happening. I was amazed to hear my 4th class child talking about the trans lesson they had in class. 😳
Ok groomers
No thanks. It’s a parents job to teach their kids about sex, not some gender fluid nonce with purple hair.
The whole world is gone stark raving mad
If anyone wants to know where this ends, look a the Law suits lining up in America. Or closer to home look at the arts Council in England funding this. Or even look at who feels its safe now to champion queer theory. Remember him?
Jesus God be with the days we went to school to learn English irish geography history maths Teachers are to involved in students lives
Will this include telling 7 year olds it’s ok if they want to change sex, because obviously 7 year olds need to know this as soon as possible & are more than mature enough to make the decision for themselves. Maybe before they practice their nine times tables or play with dolls.
Can someone tell them that they're teachers and not parents. That's our job
won't be long now so before this reaches our shores. Must have seen the creepy stuff going on in the US and decided they wanted some of the action
you lot seem to love kids too much lol.
The word 'fact' means nothing when it comes from the mouths of people who think that a man can be a woman. It's very odd how passionate these 'educators' are about sexual education and not actual beneficial education.
Is there anything parents will actually teach their children? Children come to school with no toilet training, no table-sense, no experience of sharing, no sense of play, no experience of print or colour, unable to tie shoelaces...
Science based - xx xy None of that mental illness that is gender ideology
Absolutely not their jobs
Here we go, I have to say Ireland is a happy hunting ground for any stupid cause these days. I could never go back but I’m sure I won’t be missed either.
Why? I see no need for sex education in schools at all. I had zero sex education as a child - neither at home nor at school - and knew the facts of life very early on.
