A recent survey by research company Kantar found four in ten would not want young children to be taught LGBTQ+ inclusive lessons.
Although the study demonstrated 90% of British people would be accepting of gay, lesbian and bisexual colleagues and friends, nearly half said six-year-old children should not be taught that it is ‘okay to be gay’.Craig Watkins, UK chief executive of Kantar’s public division, told Reuters the study shows ‘social progress is not guaranteed’ even though ‘we have come a long way’.
