SCHOOLS must not proactively tell kids they might have been born the wrong sex, new rules will say.
Ministers are drawing up new guidance for schools following a backlash at the teaching of “gender ideology” in class.

Insiders told The Sun it will make clear that teachers should steer clear of the subject unless directly asked by a pupil, in which case they must stress it is a “contested” belief.
The new relationships, sex and health education [RSHE] guidance is set to be released by Education Gillian Keegan within weeks.
She has already ordered teachers to share all classroom material with parents “no ifs, no buts, no more excuses”.
Meanwhile a long-awaited probe is set to warn that kids face “psychological” impacts if they are allowed to change gender.
The Cass Review – due to be published on Wednesday – will also reportedly say that prepubescent children must be treated differently to older pupils.
Separate guidance for schools released last year made clear that pupils should only be allowed to socially transition – identify as the opposite sex – in exceptional circumstances.
Rishi Sunak’s spokesman said: “Social transitioning is not a neutral act, and no one should be forced to use preferred pronouns or accept contested beliefs as fact.”
A department for education spokesperson said: “We are currently reviewing the RSHE curriculum, and we will launch a consultation on the updated guidance as soon as possible.
“We have been repeatedly clear that contested views should not be taught as fact, and that we will put in place clear safeguards to stop pupils from being taught concepts they are too young to understand.”
