CHRISTIAN TEACHER FIGHTS BACK AFTER DISMISSAL REGARDING LGBTQ MATTERS!

School worker who claimed she was sacked for her Christian beliefs after criticising plans to teach primary pupils about LGBT relationships appeals employment tribunal ruling

Kristie Higgs was dismissed for gross misconduct in 2019 from Farmor's School
It came after she shared Facebook posts criticising teaching LGBT relationships
Mrs Higgs, from Fairford, claimed she was sacked because of Christian beliefs
The school denied this, saying she was sacked because of language in the posts
Employment tribunal said she was fairly dismissed but she is ruling against this
A school worker who lost an employment tribunal after claiming she was sacked because of her Christian beliefs is appealing against the ruling.
Kristie Higgs, 45, a pastoral assistant at Farmor's School in Fairford, Gloucestershire, was dismissed for gross misconduct in 2019 after sharing Facebook posts criticising plans to teach LGBTQ+ relationships at her son's primary school.
The mother-of-two, supported by the Christian Legal Centre, took the school to an employment tribunal and argued that she had been unlawfully discriminated against because of her Christian beliefs.The school denied dismissing Mrs Higgs, from Fairford, because of her religious beliefs and instead said she was sacked because of the language used in the posts.
In its ruling in 2020, the tribunal said she was fairly dismissed because her views could be perceived as transphobic, adding that her religion was a 'protected characteristic' as defined by the Equality Act.
Mrs Higgs' appeal will be heard at the Employment Appeal Tribunal, London, for two days from March 1.'I hold these views because of my Christian beliefs, beliefs and views which are shared by hundreds of thousands of parents across the UK.
'My number one concern has always been the effect that learning about sex and gender in school will have on children at such a young age. I have not discriminated against anyone, and never would.
'I was raising concerns about my son being educated in matters that are not aligned with my religious beliefs and people could choose to agree or disagree. I would never tell others what to think.'
Mrs Higgs had shared and commented on posts which raised concerns about relationship education at her son's Church of England primary school.
