Parents should be told about what their children are learning in school, the Education Secretary has said.
Nadhim Zahawi said parents “should know” what their children are being taught, adding that he recognised parents had particular concerns around the teaching of topics such as gender non-conformity.
His comments in the Commons on Monday follow an amendment to the Schools Bill tabled by former Labour education secretary Baroness Morris, which says that “where parents request it, schools must allow parents to view all curriculum materials used in schools, including those provided by external third party charitable and commercial providers”.
