Hull school 'sorry' after pupils researched porn homework on web

The work was set for pupils in Years 7,8 and 9

The students were asked to"define" topics including hardcore pornography, soft pornography as well as female genital mutilation and breast ironing.They were also asked questions about alcohol, drugs and smoking, as part of the homework. "The majority of children nowadays will now go on the internet to help them with their homework and if you type that kind of thing on the internet, God knows what's going to pop up."The academy's principal said he would ensure all future material was age-appropriate

He said students"were not directed to research these topics themselves on the internet because all the answers to the questions posed are contained in the teacher-produced materials we shared".

'The very fact that hardcore pornography is not on the agenda...'

It's called 'child sexual exploitation'.

Kidds need to lear

No wonder kids leave school with no practical skills, highly sexualised and without motivation. This is appalling.

So where are these supposed reading materials? Inquiring minds want to know what the hell is in them.

Sex should not even be brought into schools, there was no sex education in schools years ago, and people grew up perfectly fine, class counsellors, for many different things, bullying, sex advice,home problems etc. Very basic sex education perhaps, health, std,s.periods, puberty

UK us a joke

Really What did they think would happen Time for adults to adult!

The teachers involved are clearly grooming the kids.

Surely this is borderline child abuse.

Everyone going 'lefties, lefties!!', did you not read the part in the article that said 'The work was in line with government guidance'?

Are the parents in trouble for allowing their child to access porn, as it is would be their internet connection & network. Parents should monitor the internet activitiey of every child. It stated no internet usage was required, how many parents just left theirs to get on with it.

Wtaf?

My first day on the job and they sacked me. It was a simple mistake.

I won’t want to send our children back to school if our education system is proving so ridiculous! educationgovuk BorisJohnson UKParliament

Not as though most will have clicked 'I am not over 18', is it? At least 14yr old lads can delet their browser history, we just had to be inventive where we stashed the mags.

Someone's getting sacked in the morning.

AlastairJT This is churchofengland school? Where is the regulation ?

The teachers asking for this work won't have been asked for it when they were at school. I definitely wasn't. What changed that made it go onto the curriculum? It's not internet-related, most of the list were around decades ago.

Iamdanielazu Whattttt ?

What’s the point in that homework? You don’t need to research something to know of it It’s not like I ever needed help

Isn't this part of the PSHCE curriculum? I've come across this before in the year 11 syllabus.

That's really disturbing. From a religious school as well

Shocking and disturbing.

Please stop teaching this to children

Why is a school asking 11 to 14 year olds to define all those catagories of porn in the first place

I am sure non of them have ever searched anything like that before. Righto

pathetic, censure whoever had this idea

Labour council ? of course !

The PERVERSE PEOPLE IN CHARGE OF YOUR CHILDREN'S SCHOOLS😱 SATANIC TEACHING!!

Bizarre or what? There is absolutely no need whatsoever for children to be confronted with this sort of thing. Can we have swift action from the government on this please? (I shan't be holding my breath needless to say).

It's worse in Scotland. Trans person with pornsite reading to small children in full gear, taking photos of said children then posting them on his pervy website! Arranged through an MP. John Swinnie endorses curriculum teaching porn to schoolchildren,yet where is the outrage BBC?

This is absolutely disgusting.

Time these sick Labour Party loving teachers were sacked and put on a register

Where in their tiny minds did a teacher ever think this was an appropriate subject for children?🤬😡🤬

WTF

It sounds like everyday conversation on the buses with OfficialEcco yobs before lockdown 🤔

Probably not the best way to do it but a topic such as revenge pornography surely needs to taught at an age before children could do it. Considering its illegal. Will point out if you read the article it clearly says they have the answers on handouts without having to Google it.

Certainly one piece of homework I would have completed thoroughly. Although upon handing it in, the pages might have been stuck together.

What a sicko. The teacher should be sakes and the school shut down. I mean I’m all for sex Ed. But why the fek do they need to learn about hardcore porn etc at such a young age. Is this school getting them ready for something! Sickos

Breast ironing ! There's some innocence I won't get back.

Gold 😂

The one homework they will volunteer for 🤣

Normalising indecency

Though id like to see what they wrote 😁

Now this is over the top! This is not a mistake. This is some peeverted teacher wanting kids to watch porn! Give us the names

And the people that set this work have been to university for five years... and they are supposed to be the clever ones.. what a mess..

'Teacher produced materials' . That's the most unnerving aspect of this story.

How has someone not lost their job over this.

I wonder what sort of Neighbourhood they live in, if expected to 'kinda know' that sort of stuff...

There has been a steady increase in wickedness over the last couple of decades. People need to repent and come to Jesus for forgiveness of their sins - time is short.

What a sad society we live in

The teacher is not the only wanker in school

😂

I think the more important question is, why is this even on the curriculum?

This came up last year. It’s clearly something that’s in the curriculum. The second part which they don’t show on here is about terms used in drug dealing and use. Bet many 11 year olds know some of them already.

Leon, she is 13 and in Hull, without lockdown she had one of the highest chances of being pregnant in her age group within the UK.

The teacher who set this should be investigated by their safeguarding lead...if a doctor or policeman asked children to talk to them about porn they would be struck off. I bet that teacher has some skeletons in their closet...

Oh, its OK folks, its only Hull...

Why should they even be learning those words and meanings at school

UKs kind of school.

Please tell me this is fake news....

To everyone yelling about ‘leftie values’ - this is literally in the curriculum. The curriculum was designed by the conservative government under Michael Gove. It is then enforced by Ofsted. Teachers don’t choose what they teach. This is the education system you voted for.

Same on you!It should be deeply investigated.

I don't think 'sorry' cuts it. If I were a parent of a child at this school I'd want a detailed explanation of their aims and objectives in setting homework of this nature - and why those aims are believed to be consistent with the values of the Church of England.

HeilAbigail

That’s the liberal lefties. Why not teach grooming it seems to be acceptable to them.

Well they got to learn it

😳🤭

Define hardcore porn? Wtf

That is deeeeeeply disturbing and should have had more of an investigation into that teacher.

Ask the Scottish deputy first minister about the Nike scandal ?

Why is this being taught in schools? Kids find this stuff out all in good time and it has always been thus.

Why? Just why? And what sick demented person sent this “homework” to children? 😡

Im more disgusted that this is homework, kids have enough issues at that age without political correctness being thrust on them.

If you remove the word define from the list you end up with my browser history

Sorry - think they need investigating as whichever teacher gave that as homework needs investigating.

😳

Learning about the differences in 'hardcore porn', 'transgender porn', 'softcore porn' gives no benefit to safeguarding children. Whoever is behind this, whether official curriculum or someone's own work, needs an investigation, and possibly never to work with children again.

11 - 14 year olds in this day and age.... Haha... I bet the majority have seen more 'adult content' then most will ever do!

This kind of smutty, near paedophilic claptrap has been actively encouraged by the ultra Wokie ‘so-called liberal’ Left. ‘Decency’, ‘normality’ & C21st ‘secularism’ to them is called ‘bigotry’!!!

afshinrattansi It is after an offence for Adults to let Minors see Pornograpghy and surely this must cover that legal definition of it Afshin?

WTF..name shame the idiot who did this.. and put them on that naughty register.. putting it mildly.. 😡

Crazy!

If a parent did this, they would have Social Services all over them!

Haha this is just funny

Yoh😳

Make a lot more sense than Pye, co sign and that tan rubbish. Chuck some mortgage advice in and that may actually be an education that people actually need

They did exactly the right thing : Where were they meant to go to do research ? The Public Library ? Offer themselves for abuse ? Do research on Wikipedia ? Other internet research wearing condom tinted spectacles ? Excellent topic ... I am sure the kids did quality work !

🤯

The pearl clutching hypocrisy on this tweet is strong.

He still has a job

Kids are being taught ‘Immorality’ is OK, Join Islam in saying NO to this BS!

Just read the article, can someone please let me know what the fuck 'breast ironing' is? It surely can't be what it literally says.

Anything in this area should be discussed in class at an age appropriate stage controlled by a teacher, not given to very young KS3 students to Google their answers. What have these children seen?

Can they teach me please

Surely a few dads will go deal to this principal. Surely

The headteacher has 'asked that no future PSHE materials contain any potentially sensitive content'. Good luck with that!

Where’s common sense?!

Just going to “ok boomer” myself and let myself out. Good luck.

How utterly depressing that this sort of stuff should be inflicted on young children. In my days we learnt about the frog and that was it! What idiot puts in “define pornography”for an 11 year old, let alone the other questions.

There really is some cobblers in the armchair education specialists. We all did the Porn cartoon at school. The prblem here for me, is not that these things are discussed. in class, with Teacher NOT HOMEWORK. Someone in charge of the session. Kids/questions=Computor for answers

Why do adults care so much what a child thinks of transgender pornography? Genuine question.

What the Hull?!

Where else would they research it?

The answer for all of them would be to remove the child from school and arrange home schooling.

Pervie educationalists!

Countries with the lowest teen pregnancy rates are those with a more forward thinking education system. Kids will learn this stuff in the playground, better they are taught properly & are armed with knowledge & understanding for a world so different than how we grew up.

Somebody trying to get the sack?

Words can be such troublesome things.

You couldn’t write this script

OMG ! No wonder teachers have a bad name. Sorry wouldn’t be good enough if happened in my area

That’s vile!!! What sort of teachers do we have now?

Haha, that's hilarious.

So, in the past, the English schools decided that woodwork was more important than 'useless' subjects like Logic Philosophy, Ethics and Psychology; then we end up with Brexit and the Tories. Now, what, porn and counting how many sexes there are is more important? FFS

What IS breast ironing

'. . all the answers to the questions posed are contained in the teacher- produced materials we shared'. The parents of the children at this school need to know exactly what materials have been shared in the classroom.

This shows a ridiculous lack of judgement, something I would expect school heads should have in abundance

No wonder people don’t want to send their kids back to school! How can a teacher be so completely void of judgment?

Wtf😹😹😹

If homework sheets involving porn is still this boring looking, I can’t imagine what normal maths and English worksheets look like in that there. No wonder some schools can’t make students learn.

Where is the UK heading with this? Mad people everywhere. How can UK education sector now behaves like Nigeria government. Shame on you all. Mad people.

Why do we bother GavinWilliamson ? Surely this nonsense has to stop?

Nothing surprises me hull.

Fake news BBC

This is utter teaching incompetence surely

This generation is so fucking lucky

😳

You're whole establishment is fake news, lazy journalism.

OMG🙄. The academy's principal said that 'in future we will make sure homework is set for appropriate age groups'. How on earth would he think that homework was appropriate in the first place The mind boggles🙄🙄🙄

iRyanHayes DaleAliMusic jesus fucking Christ 😂

What? Defying hard pornography at the age of 11? Which sick mentally ill government decided this was an appropriate content for that age?

Mad how's schools are different nowadays days full encourage the making of hardcore porn

Teacher needs sacking... And probably their computer searched by the police.

Check that persons hard drive

I mean 'drag queen' really? What is education these days? Maybe it's best teachers don't re-opem schools. Doing more harm than good!

Archbishop Sentamu Academy - that explains everything

He has to go... this is absolutely disgusting. Sorry is not enough the damage is done. Hull

That school needs closing down period..

No worries, after not passing my GCSE porn I carried on studying.

Knowledge doesn't harm anyone. Open and honest discussion doesn't harm anyone.

The UK looks to be filled with filthy milk drinkers.

This cannot be seriously a piece of homework set by a right minded teacher 😳

Hahaha. Yeah they're sorry. Sorry they asked. They weren't ready for the definitions.

Define define define!!!! What a lazy teacher. Where are the higher order thinking questions e.g. evaluate softcore porn to hardcore porn, with references to women’s suffrage

Why would this EVER be a school topic for ANY student or pupil?!

It's probably dad helping with the homework.

This is what teaching has become in the state school system. The woke left are free to peddle their agenda and screw the minds of our young with their warped sense of perspective on subjects ranging from gender to porn. They can’t spell or add but know about fluid gender

Good to see schools teaching? That is what they are there for isn’t it? That teacher should never teach again.

😂😂😂😂😂😂

'Sorry if' actually. So basically not sorry.

2020 came with quite a lot, who else is curious about what’s next..?

rockgod1970 🤦🏼‍♀️I despair! To not realise what would come up on an internet search?!

I dont remember needing go define certain types of Porn in PHSE classes? Not that much can change in 10 years surely?

George11Allen

Jeez I dont even know some of those answers and I'm old..er

The list can be described on one word 'Deviant'. Trying to 'normalise' any topic on the list, is for what purpose ?

Ok... Right... Hmmm... What?

Couldn't tell you the capital of Portugal but can explain a rimjob

Why don't we just teach them to read, write and count first? Maybe even throw in some interesting, relatable tales from world history as well? Perhaps a dab of science and IT?

Deeply disturbing. The person responsible for this should be asked to explain the reasoning, Then dismissed and possibly put on a register.

Reminds me of the time I told the class to research prince Albert 😳

Just about sums teachers up really

Wtf, I give up on this world. It just gets worse and worse... They're trying to take away the innocence of children.

Another pointless subject usually taught by teachers who need something to bulk up their timetable.

Pedo school, bet seeing the school staff would speak volumes.

Someone needs investigating, because whoever thought it was appropriate for kids to learn what hardcore porn is has serious issues

Welcome to 2020, where your kids are taught such vital lessons as ''transgender porn''.

Amazing. Who could possibly think this was a good task for remote learning?! M x

Aaronhowlett

OMG Those poor children will be altered for life than to that foolish stunt.

Oh dear! Whatever happened to the 3 r's?

The new national curriculum if the lefties take control

I wish there were accidents like this when I was in school!

God bless progressives. 11 year olds need to know about anal sex and about breast ironing.

These people knew exactly what they were doing with this homework agenda.

It's an absolute disgrace It's time sensible parents took action.

Getting as bad as Scotland under the rancid SNP.

Sounds like this teacher was just REALLY looking forward to reading the answers. FIRE THIS TEACHER.

Sorry isn’t enough sometimes. They need firing.

Personal, social and health education... Those questions? What were they thinking sex ed over the internet? Hopefully the kids have got a view of society with their parents, obviously, intervening and managed to complete whatever home work they were set. :/

Wow, what?!

Nothing like the bbc did in the 60s, 70s and 80s Scrap the illegal bbc
