Relationships and Sex Education: Gender
Asked by: Carla Denyer (Green Party - Bristol Central) Tuesday 6th January 2026 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, for what reason her department’s July 2025 statutory guidance on Relationships and Sex Education notes that schools should not teach as fact that all people have a gender identity; and how schools should follow this guidance whilst teaching about the protected characteristic of gender reassignment under the Equality Act 2010. Answered by Georgia Gould - Minister of State (Education) The statutory relationships, sex and health education guidance makes it clear that, at secondary school, there should be an equal opportunity to explore the features of stable and healthy same-sex relationships when learning about relationships. It strongly encourages primary schools to include same-sex parents when discussing family arrangements. From primary school, children will learn about the importance of kindness and respect, including respect for people who are different from them. We expect schools to ensure that all children and young people, including trans pupils, are treated with the same respect and dignity as their peers, fostering an environment where everyone feels safe, valued and supported. The guidance remains clear that those who share the protected characteristic of gender reassignment also have protection from discrimination by law and should be treated with respect and dignity. It acknowledges that, beyond law and facts about biological sex and gender reassignment, there is significant debate. That is why it sets out that schools should not endorse any particular view or teach it as fact. The new guidance informs teaching from September 2026. We will fund schools to pilot initiatives that enhance teaching of relationships and sex education. Oak National Academy has developed materials across the updated curriculum. |

Asked by: Carla Denyer (Green Party - Bristol Central) Tuesday 6th January 2026 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to July 2025 statutory guidance on Relationships and Sex Education, whether primary schools are required to teach about same-sex families. Answered by Georgia Gould - Minister of State (Education) The statutory relationships, sex and health education guidance makes it clear that, at secondary school, there should be an equal opportunity to explore the features of stable and healthy same-sex relationships when learning about relationships. It strongly encourages primary schools to include same-sex parents when discussing family arrangements.

Special Educational Needs
Asked by: Carla Denyer (Green Party - Bristol Central) Tuesday 6th January 2026 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to her letter to the Chair of the Education Select Committee dated 22 October 2025, when she will begin (a) to seek views through listening sessions in every region of the country and (b) fortnightly Ministerial meetings with key parent and expert groups; and if she will provide a list of those groups. Answered by Georgia Gould - Minister of State (Education) In early December, the department launched a national conversation on special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) reform, building on extensive engagement over the past year with children, young people, parents and professionals. We are hosting nine regional face‑to‑face events and five open online conversations focused on the five principles of reform. These began on 2 December and provide thousands of opportunities for families and the sector to share their views. We are also running a wide range of roundtable discussions with young people, parents and practitioners, including sessions with KIDS, Speech and Language UK and the Council for Disabled Children. We are encouraging wider participation through our Citizen Space portal. The department also convenes a weekly development group of SEND parent organisations and key stakeholders, representing a broad range of voices across the sector. Membership includes: • Council for Disabled Children • Disabled Children’s Partnership • National Network of Parent Carer Forums • National Association for Special Educational Needs • The Difference • Dingley’s Promise • The Athelstan Trust • Let Us Learn Too • The SEND Sanctuary.
Additional organisations will be invited on a rolling basis, aligned with the topics under discussion. |

Asked by: Carla Denyer (Green Party - Bristol Central) Tuesday 13th January 2026 Question to the Department for Work and Pensions: To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many children whose families are subject to No Recourse to Public Funds restrictions are living in poverty.

We recognise the distinct challenges faced by those subject to the No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) condition and have engaged with organisations who have made representations on behalf of children subject to NRPF and will continue to do so. As part of the Child Poverty Strategy, the Department is working with the Home Office to develop questions on NRPF for inclusion in the Family Resources Survey 2026/2027, with the data first published in March 2028. This is a household survey undertaken annually to explore living standards in the UK. |

Gender Based Violence
Asked by: Carla Denyer (Green Party - Bristol Central) Monday 19th January 2026 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what additional resources she plans to provide to ensure the police can meet the expectation set out in the Freedom From Violence and Abuse Strategy for police forces to follow the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme. Answered by Jess Phillips - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office) We know that more needs to be done to ensure the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme is as effective as it can be for victims and survivors. We are working closely with the Independent Office for Police and Conduct and National Centre for Violence Against Women and Girls and Public Protection to review the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme, and better understand the barriers forces face when applying the statutory guidance, including any resourcing implications. In the VAWG Strategy, we committed to create a clearer, more consistent framework for police and other agencies to improve implementation of the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme. We will also develop and roll out a digital tool, to support the police to make better decisions when disclosing to victims and survivors. |

20 Jan 2026
Air Pollution in England Environmental Audit Committee (Select) Not accepting submissions Air pollution is a serious threat to both public health and the natural environment. It has been linked to heart disease, strokes, cancer, asthma and impacts on lung development in children. Tens of thousands of lives are being shortened in the UK by air pollution, according to the Chair of the Environment Agency. Through the inquiry, MPs will also consider whether local authorities in England have the resources they need to monitor air quality and enforce existing rules. MPs may consider examples of best practice abroad, and what lessons these might have for policy in England. The new inquiry is the result of the Committee’s ‘The Environment in Focus’ exercise, which saw MPs hear pitches for their next inquiry from a range of academic experts and advocates. The winning pitch was given by Jemima Hartshorn, founder of campaign group Mums for Lungs and Dr Nat Easton, who researches air quality at the University of Southampton. Read the call for evidence for more information about this inquiry, and to find out how to submit written evidence through the Committee's online evidence submission portal. |
