The Local Government Lawyer reports that the High Court has granted permission for a judicial review of Oxfordshire County Council’s guidance on transgender issues in schools.
It notes that ‘Safe Schools Alliance UK has argued that the county’s Trans Inclusion Toolkit for Schools 2019 is unlawful. It said that if the case – being taken by an unnamed 13-year-old girl – succeeded “other toolkits and resources that have similar elements, and are supported by Allsorts, Stonewall and others are likely to also be unlawful”.’
