Glawdys Leger says she took particular issue with introducing children to the concept of gender and sexual identities such as pansexual, asexual, intersex, and transgender.
Glawdys Leger was sacked from Bishop Justus school last year A teacher is facing a ‘fitness to practise’ hearing after refusing to teach LGBT material, claiming it was incompatible with her religious beliefs. Glawdys Leger, 43, was dismissed from her post teaching modern foreign languages at Bishop Justus CofE school in Bromley, south London, last May. She says this is because she refused to teach LGBT material on the religious education syllabus to year 7 pupils.
‘I cannot, however, in good conscience teach or say things I believe are contrary to my faith, for example saying that same sex sexual relationships are good and/or affirming people in their gender confusion.’ This is thought to be the first time a TRA case against a teacher at a Church of England school has progressed to a full hearing.
