Sex Discrimination Act 1975 is supported by the Equal Opportunities Commission and I will up hold this by being open to offering a place to male or female children, provide a wide range of toys and activities to accommodate both boys and girls to ensure that all children are treated as individuals and not stereotyped by their sex.

Education Act 1981 recognises 'parent’s rights regarding children’s education and special educational needs.
