If the only way to do this is bring a drag into school then I’m worried about the education system.
I also think it matters what age ranges we’re talking as beyond about 14 I’d probably have less concern about either mr (mrs?) drag or mr war veteran talking to my kids in a school setting.
You could have somebody convicted of manslaughter coming in to talk to pupils. Ex gang members have been into secondary schools that I’ve worked at. I don’t think it would be suitable for Primary school, but a real life example of somebody who has actively made choices to learn from mistakes could be seen as an example of progression.
I’m struggling with 5 - 11 year olds being the audience for a drag Queen.
It’s strange that there is a recent trend of students trying to ban certain speakers at their university for something as trivial as not calling someone by their preferred pronoun yet it’s ok for a drag queen to go to a school and talk in front of small children.
War is part of the National Curriculum and now so is ‘tolerance’ as part of British Values. Like I’ve said before but didn’t waste my time explaining this kind of stuff is slowly being pushed.
I have no issue with drag Queens but really struggle to see why it is something kids need to be exposed to.
Somebody mentioned Mrs. Doubtfire earlier, relatively tame from memory, that wasn’t a U.
