Pupils in years seven, eight, and nine at Archbishop Sentamu Academy in Hull were set the work as part of their home learning for their Personal, Social and Health Education class.
As well as the children, aged 11 to 14, were asked to define soft erotica, male circumcision, chest ironing and more.
They were also asked questions about liquor, powder. Mum-of-three Ms Taylor, 34, said she only became aware of the homework after being warned about it by a Social Media post from another parent before her daughter began working on it.
“My daughter is still very much a child,” she said. “We’ve still got magic elves, her bedroom is done in My Little Pony. She is very innocent and naive. “She’s 11. She should be doing Stranger hazard, and ‘Don’t share your info online’, but genital mutilation is another thing.
“It was asking about male circumcision, chest ironing. “I don’t even know what that is myself.” “I’m just thinking is there kids out there who have done this work? “Now it’s making me think what they are learning about at school that we don’t know about.
“We only know about this because they’re home learning.” She added that some of the work was acceptable and encouraged learning about eroticism, but said a lot of it was “completely inappropriate.”
Other parents and carers said they felt the same and were equally “disgusted”. Leon Dagon, 25, saw the work when he was sorting his 13-year-old sister’s work for her. He said: “Luckily I found the work otherwise she would have typed this stuff into Google and you know what would have come up and that makes me
feel sick.
“I’m appalled. I get erotic education is vital in anyone’s life but when there’s raw topics like this it’s something else.” The Archbishop Sentamu Academy has been approached for comment.
