A longtime teacher who is Christian is under attack because she declined to promote the ideology of extreme LGBT lifestyle choices at a Church of England school.
She’s also been accused of expressing her biblical beliefs on human sexuality when she responds to student questions.
A report from Christian Concern explains Glawdys Leger, 43, for 12 years was a specialist Modern Foreign Languages teacher before being fired by the Bishop Justus School in Bromley, Kent, last year.
She now is being represented by the Christian Legal Center in her fight with the school, where officials treated her “like a dangerous criminal” for holding biblical beliefs, the Christian Concern organization reported.
The problem stemmed from the school’s decision to install “extreme and politically partisan LGBT” lessons as part of the school’s “Religious Education.”
She had expressed her belief that “God believes humans are born male and female and that LGBTQI practice is sinful,” the report said.
It was the Aquinas Church of England Education Trust that claimed, in a report to the Teaching Regulation Agency, that she had “upset one pupil” with her beliefs.
“On the basis of upset, not harm, to one child,” Christian Concern reported, a case was launched against her.
That could result in a decision to bar her from teaching, the report said.
She had been seeing more and more promotion of LGBT ideologies, “and other contentious ethical and political issues” in the school, which claims to be Christian.
For example, teaching materials were introduced that suggested to children that they can be “born in the wrong body,” the report said.
Gender ideologies promoting the concept of “pansexual, asexual, intersex and transgender” beliefs were introduced.
And demands were made that those who are “non-queer” must “support” those beliefs.
But such lessons are “misleading and partisan,” as “gender identity” is not a protected characteristic under the Equality Act 2010, the report said.
Also implemented were various promotions on abortion and Critical Race Theory, which claims society is racist and the solution is more racism.
Concerned that parents, in sending their children to a “Christian” school were being deceived, she decided to teach the biblical perspective on those social issues.
An investigation, and her dismissal, followed, and a pending hearing before the TRA is accusing her of “unacceptable professional conduct.”
She said, “The thought of me losing my career for expressing my Christian beliefs in response to questions from students is heart-breaking. I was treated like a criminal and as though I was a danger for expressing my Christian beliefs.”
Andrea Williams, chief executive of the Christian Legal Centre, said: “Glawdys’ case is part of a growing trend of the TRA targeting Christian teachers for expressing their faith in schools. Glawdys was hounded out of the job she loved because she wanted children to understand in an RE lesson in a Christian school that Christian teaching does not align with LGBTQI ideology.”
IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Believe it or not, today’s high priests of climate-change apocalypse are correct in predicting that in just a few short years, the earth will become miserable, wretched and almost uninhabitable by human beings. But the grim future they envision won’t come about because of “catastrophic climate change,” but rather, because of the implementation of their completely insane and truly catastrophic agenda.
As Greenpeace co-founder Dr. Patrick Moore recently admitted, “If they actually achieve Net Zero, at least 50% of the population would die of hunger and disease.” Likewise, writes energy expert and author Alex Epstein: “Today’s proposed policies to rapidly eliminate fossil fuel use would, if fully implemented, have truly apocalyptic consequences – making the world an impoverished, dangerous, and miserable place for most people.”
Question: When the scientific case for global warming apocalypse consists primarily of a 1-degree Celsius rise in temperature over more than 130 years, what explains the obsession with an imminent, climate-caused end of the world?
Although many groups have been drawn into the Climate Change Cult – from the news media (which has warned of climate catastrophe, either global warming or a “new ice age,” for over a century!), to innocent school kids indoctrinated by hysterical leftist teachers, to liberal Democrats who claim “climate change” will destroy the earth in a few years – the REAL villains are the national and global elites who KNOW the apocalyptic global warming religion is just a cruel hoax, but promote and exploit it as a means of accomplishing their ultimate goal: Transforming and ruling the world.
The heart and soul of today’s bizarre, pagan climate-change religion, and the global elites’ strategies for using it to rule all of mankind, is powerfully exposed and illuminated in the September issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, an issue titled “CULT OF THE CLIMATE APOCALYPSE: The elites’ breathtaking strategy for ruling the world.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
