A new report is confirming that the Church of England is going "hands-off" regarding LGBT lessons in church schools.
The report is from Decision Magazine and reveals the church is refusing "to intervene after a parent complained of LGBTQ indoctrination of children as young as 7 in a CofE school in Norfolk, U.K."
Instead, the report said, the church is "deferring to a forthcoming update to the government’s sex education guidelines and to the discretion of local CofE schools in how they teach the mandated government program."
The Christian Legal Center, based on London, is representing the parent, and said a school the parent’s child attended last year was teaching young children that it’s possible to be "born a boy but feel like a girl."
The lessons used terms like "pangender" and "cisgender."
The indoctrination into the LGBT ideology is part of the government's mandatory Relationships, Sex and Health Education program, the report said.
Nigel Genders, the Church of England’s chief education officer, responded with, "I see that you have taken your concerns to the school, which is entirely the right and appropriate thing to do. The RSHE policy and decisions about the resources used to deliver it are the responsibility of the school in consultation with parents, having due regard to any advice from the Diocesan Board of Education."

He continued, "The Church of England Education Office has set out some general principles and guidance to help schools form their policy and practice in this area, particularly in a way that is mindful of the faith perspectives of many of our parents."
He didn't mention biblical standards regarding the Church of England school curriculum.

Genders further admonished the parent, "It will be very helpful to have new guidance from the government on how these contested issues are handled within educational settings. We expect this guidance very soon."
The parent charged, according to the Christian legal Center, that the teaching "contains aspects which are wholly age inappropriate, sexually explicit, ideologically influenced, and unsupported by scientific basis."
"The CofE has a uniquely influential position in the lives of children in this country through its network of schools. We know children do best when they understand and are taught that they are made in the image of God and many parents want to send their children to CofE schools because of their Christian foundations that are rooted in Biblical morality. How is it that the CofE education authorities and leadership shy away from contending for that truth and prefer to look to the state for guidance rather than the Bible itself?" asked Andrea Williams, chief of the center.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To their horror, America’s ruling elites failed to knock out Donald Trump during his four years as president via the fabricated Trump-Russia collusion scandal – conceived and funded by the Hillary Clinton campaign, as the Durham report proves – or through two circus-like impeachment trials. Later came “January 6,” a demonstration-turned-riot by Trump supporters who passionately believed, with good reason, that the recent election – and therefore their country – had just been stolen from them. Members of Congress now want to constitutionally bar Trump from again seeking public office for having instigated “an armed insurrection” (no protester was armed) against America.
Then in March, Trump was indicted in New York on 34 counts of falsifying business records, and in June, still more indictments were filed against Trump – 37 federal criminal charges related to his handling of classified documents. Honest legal experts not in league with the Biden administration openly classify these indictments as somewhere between frivolous and idiotic, not to mention grotesquely politically motivated.
The Deep State’s never-ending persecution of Donald Trump, as well as the incredible back story of the totalitarian agenda Trump’s persecutors are attempting to implement in America and why Trump represents a mortal threat to their nefarious designs – is the focus of the blockbuster July issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled “THE PERSECUTION OF DONALD TRUMP: Why the ruling elites loathe – and fear – the 45th president.”
