June, every year, the LBTQ+ community celebrated “Pride Month” across different countries
TN Model Schools across all 38 districts celebrated PrideMonth by educating the school children about gender & sexuality etc
students had discussions on distinct gender identities.
In addition, the school held a “gender sensitisation” programme where students taught about Pride Month’s history and the range of genders and sexual orientations that make up the LGBTQIA+ community.
netizens raised concerns about whether the school authorities sought parental consent before making students a part of such programmes.
questioned if the age of those school students was appropriate for such pride programmes
