Stop Scottish Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood to children agenda

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

We would like a debate on the explicit content of the program delivered to our children in Scotland.

The guidance, content, lesson plans and
Handouts of this new Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood (RSHP) element of the Health and Wellbeing Scottish program is not what we should be teaching our young children. Studying the content provided by RSHP, is not appropriate, this is child grooming. These lessons are being taught by teachers with no subject specialism. I believe parents have the right to be able to review this content and opt out of these lessons.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

The Scottish Government is responsible for education in Scotland. That means that the UK Government and Parliament can't look into it.

The Scottish Parliament has its own Public Petitions Committee.
