In a media statement released this week, the Department of Basic Education said the media had been blowing out of proportion a document which is currently under consultation dealing with questions regarding the inclusion of sexually and gender diverse children pertaining to school admission, curriculum, co-curricular programmes, uniforms, and facilities.
This comes after a public uproar over a proposal to have unisex toilets in schools, prompted the department to clarify that the issue of gender neutral bathrooms was based on the draft discussion document. “This is a matter blown out of proportion, which may have arisen from the consultations that are currently underway on the Guidelines for the Socio-educational Inclusion of Diverse Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, Expression and Sex Characteristics in Schools.
[MEDIA STATEMENT] The Department sets the record straight on the draft guidelines on socio-educational inclusion in schools
We must NOT import this woke mentality from abroad.
Its another mind blowing stupid idea from the worlds 163rd worst run educational system in the world If a He thinks He is a She why should he have access to a she's bathroom.. thats not gender inclusion - that's a rape waiting to happen SA Dep of education is stupid
In a country with such a high rape rate, they didn’t think period!!!!
We have those ar work ... They don't foster anything... Re nkgela ke diphinya tša go fapafapana fela.
Aah! So it was NOT a DA plot after all!!
The country still hasn't even eradicated pit toilets but the priority is to pander to a certain group who want to confuse gender.. Nah.. not gonna happen
Nonsensical idea.
Cmon guys...first u shoved bullying down our throats for gay people, now its toilets...gay males dont have a problem with leaving our urinal and pissing in the toilet and Im sure its the same for lesbians.
Well... it was a stupid and imposing suggestion. If this was aimed at making a specific 'group' of people comfortable, then they should build a toilet for each one of the the 'letters'. That's basically 6 toilets + the usual boys and girls ones. Makes it 8...nice
SA is way too forward,waphapha Wanting to build stupid unisex toilets whilst some they have some mud schools and toilets in some areas
Nonsensical thinking 🤔
Yea, like Donkey Carts. God help us all 🙈🙈🙈
