“I know this caused upset to a number of my pupils.'
A book claiming being gay is a “sin” has been used in a religious Glasgow high school, a councillor has warned, despite efforts to boost LGBT rights.
Speaking at a council meeting last week, councillor Higgins said: “I’ve seen some incredible work in LGBT inclusion.“The ‘Called to Love’ curriculum which teaches Catholic values, much of which are very commendable, but still includes chapters on how marriage should be between a man and a woman and how homosexuality is a sin.”
Responding to the politician’s points, a council officer said: “For a number of years we have been trying to work even closer with the Archdiocese of Glasgow .” “We try to work closely with the headteachers and school communities to encourage the usage of appropriate material. But I think frankly it is a tough nut and we can only keep pushing for it.”
