Andrew Moffat introduced the No Outsiders programme in Parkfield Community School in Birmingham – where he was the school’s assistant headteacher at the time – a decade ago.
Some parents with children at Parkfield Community School raised a petition against the classes, which led to protests at the school and the classes to be suspended during talks with parents and mediators.
Mr Moffat – who made the shortlist for the world’s “best teacher” award in 2018 for the programme – delivers workshops and training in schools across the UK on the No Outsiders scheme.
In 2019, the No Outsiders programme sparked protests by mainly Muslim parents who objected to their children learning about same-sex relationships.
Kristie Higgs was sacked from her role at Farmor’s School in Fairford, Gloucestershire, in 2019 for sharing Facebook posts criticising teaching about LGBT+ relationships in schools.
