FOI Request - Trans Children in School

Request 101003178035

I am writing to make a request under the Freedom of Information Act..
Specifically, I would like the following information:

1. The total number of pupils at schools in your council area who have indicated to a school that
they have changed names, their use of pronouns, or their gender, each year, since 2016. If you
could break this down by year that would be greatly appreciated.

2. The total number of instances in your council area where a member of school staff has been
blocked, prevented or otherwise stopped by management from telling a parent or guardian
about their children indicating they have changed names, their use of pronouns, or their gender,
each year, since 2016. If you could break this down by year that would be greatly appreciated.
