New Delhi: NCERT’s new training manual about the inclusion of transgender children in schools that experience controversy over the contents is no longer available on the board’s website.
There was no response from NCERT officials about whether the manual was revealed after the National Commission for Children’s Rights Protection (NCPCR) was looking for improvements in “anomalies” in the document.
The new manual for teachers entitled “The inclusion of transgender children in school education: Concerns and roadmaps” aim to educate and squeal them towards the LGBTQ + community and various gender orientation.
It highlights practices and strategies to make sensitive and inclusive schools for non-appropriate transgender and gender children.
These strategies include the provision of gender neutral toilets and uniforms, sensitization in non-teaching staff, stopping practices that separate children to various school activities based on their gender, inviting members of the transgender community to speak on campus, among others.

By asserting that Gender NCERT’s neutral teacher training manual will deny the same rights as children from diverse biological needs, NCPCR is looking for improvements in the document.
It also claims manual text suggests gender neutral infrastructure for children who are not commensurate with their gender reality and basic needs.
“The idea of ​​creating and eliminating binaries will deny the same rights as diverse children of biological needs.
Second, this approach will expose children to unnecessary psychological trauma because of the contradictory environment at home and at school,” NCPCR said in Ncert’s letter.
“This is also highlighted in the manual (Chapter 3) that the teacher is advised to discuss with students about puberty blockers and availability for adolescents,” the letter was read.
