Children as young as 12 in Year 6 at Illawong Public School were subjected to a graphic and highly inappropriate discussion led by a senior staff member, which included references to anal sex and an adult streaming website. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Parents are understandably upset and demanding answers after discovering the content of the discussion, which has no place in any school environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The incident occurred following a program on sexual health called \u201cAmazing Me,\u201d which had received parental consent. However, the unapproved follow-up discussion went far beyond any reasonable boundaries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Students were asked to write questions anonymously, and these questions were read aloud and answered in a way which led to discussions about an adult streaming website and sex acts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Leader of the Opposition Mark Speakman said parents trusted Illawong Public School to provide a safe and age-appropriate education for their children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cInstead, they were exposed to a discussion relating to pornography and explicit sexual acts. This isn\u2019t education\u2014this is recklessness,\u201d Mr Speakman said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Member for Miranda Eleni Petinos, who raised the matter in Parliament on Friday, said parents are furious\u2014and they have every right to be. This isn\u2019t just inappropriate; it\u2019s indefensible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cInstead of stepping up and facing these parents the Minister for Education Prue Car has gone silent. Where is her leadership? Where is her accountability? These families deserve answers, not excuses. The Minister for Education hasn\u2019t even contacted me as the local member\u2014her absence in this matter speaks volumes,\u201d Ms Petinos said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Opposition is demanding immediate action from the Education Minister, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An inappropriate discussion is concerning enough, but it is even more troubling when the government\u2019s response leaves parents feeling ignored and unsupported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
