Milton Keynes public meeting to hear parents' worries about explicit sex education

Milton Keynes
A public meeting will be held next Wednesday (28 Sep.) evening in Milton Keynes to hear parents' worries about explicit sex education programmes in primary schools.

Antonia Tully, coordinator of Safe at School, SPUC's nationwide campaign for parents concerned about explicit sex education, has been invited to Milton Keynes to explain how graphic sex education is priming young children for teenage sex. Mrs Tully, a mother of five school-age children, will be showing video clips from classroom teaching resources, aimed at seven year olds, which show sexual intercourse. The meeting has been organised in response to the concerns of local families.

The meeting is being supported by local Muslim groups. All parents (non-Muslim and Muslim) are urged to attend to find out how to uphold their rights to protect their children from sexualisation in the classroom.

The meeting will be held at Meadfurlong School, 1 Fishermead Boulevard, Fishermead, Milton Keynes, MK6 2LB, starting at 6.30pm, Wednesday 28 September.

For more information, please contact Antonia Tully on (020) 8407 3463 or safeatschool@spuc.org.uk

The meeting is being supported by:
  • Milton Keynes Tamil Forum
  • Milton Keynes Muslim Association
  • Sri Lankan Muslim Community Foundation Milton Keynes
  • Milton Keynes Islamic Society
  • Milton Keynes Islamic Arts Heritage and Culture Organisation
