Rejected petition .Review graphic sex education lessons in our schools
Review Sex education lessons which include topics such as successful masturbation, how a girl should roll a condom onto a male intimate details of oral and anal sex, as well as discussion on transgender issues with graphic details of sex change operations showing the creation of false male genitalia
More details
The graphic contents are unsuitable for children who have just left primary school.I feel parents/carers of
these children should be shown lesson contents then given the option to remove their child from the lesson if they wish.

Why was this petition rejected?
We can't publish petitions when the request is something that's already happening or something that has been announced since you started your petition.
We think your petition is covered by Government or Parliament action already. If you'd like something else, you could start a new petition clearly explaining what it is.
The Government has brought forward a review of RSHE statutory guidance and said it will start its consultation as soon as possible.
As part of this the Prime Minister has said that he has asked the Department for Education to ensure that schools are not teaching inappropriate or contested content in relationships, sex and health education.
Parents already have the right to request that their child be withdrawn from some or all of sex education delivered as part of statutory RSE. If you would like to request that be withdrawn from some or all of sex education you should contact your school about this.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
