    So is it 9 or 13? Or just not those topics until 13 and no Sex Ed at all until 9? Or does it mean Year 9, since most kids are 13 by then?

      The first actual sentence in the article clears that up.

      Schools will be told not to teach children any form of sex education until year 5, when pupils are aged nine, according to reports, with some topics being delayed until pupils are 13.

      Though that could have been the title and tagline…

        The contents of the article must be consumed in order to discuss them intelligently, to create an informed opinion, and to pose questions that have positive worth within the conversation that ensues from its having been read and ruminated upon?

        Preposterous notion.

    So is this just a paedo’s charter, since the whole reason we have sex ed that early is so kids know if something being done to them is wrong?

    Oh wait

    The Telegraph also reported that the guidance will make clear that “gender ideology” involving discussions regarding changes of gender is a “contested subject”, and that teachers must say that there are two biological sexes."

    It’s just Section 28 for trans people.
