A Christian teacher has claimed she was "treated like a criminal" after being fired by a Church of England school.

Glawdys Leger, a modern languages teacher, was sacked by Bishop Justice CofE School in Bromley, Kent, in May 2022.

She says her termination was because she refused to teach "extreme" LGBT lessons and because she shared her Christian beliefs on these issues with pupils.

The 43-year-old had objected to the content of year 7 lessons, which had been incorporated into Religious Education (RE) classes.

The Christian Legal Centre (CLC), which is supporting the 43-year-old, said lesson materials included "extreme content on gender identity with themes that begin to suggest to children that humans can be born in the wrong body" and introduced fake gender identities such as pansexual, asexual, intersex and transgender.

Children were also reportedly encouraged to be allies of the queer community.

Leger told pupils in her class, during a discussion on LGBT issues, that God made humans male and female, and that she believed LGBT practice was sinful.
