MHK says parents are taking a stand and keeping children off school

That's according to Rushen MHK Michelle Haywood, who says parents are concerned religion is playing a part in lessons on sexual health, contraception and consent.
Dr Haywood ask Education Minister Julie Edge about the issue in this week's sitting of the House of Keys.
She says it's not the right way to approach the subject:
