Parents are turning to home education because they fear their children are being exposed to information about adult sexual acts in schools, according to an MP.

On Monday, MP Andrea Jenkyns told Parliament that she has heard from parents in her Morley and Outwood constituency in Yorkshire “who feel they’ve got no choice but to educate their children” because some schools are “exposing infant children to information about adult sexual acts.”
