The UK government has settled with a Christian family over a legal case in which they were labeled transphobic for refusing to follow a primary school’s transgender-affirming policies.

The case goes back to 2017 when Nigel Rowe, 49, and his wife Sally, 47, questioned the policy of their two sons’ Church of England primary school in the Isle of Wight that allowed transgender pupils to attend as their chosen sex.
