Education Minister Bill Hogan (Progressive Conservative Party) amends Policy 713 - Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Policy. Initially passed in 2020 after a decade of consultations, Policy 713 in its original form asked for parental consent in order to formally change students' names or pronouns, but made it mandatory to use a student's chosen name if it is not possible to get permission from a parent. It also allowed students to participate on sporting teams and use washrooms consistent with their gender identity.

The amendments (1) removed explicit mention of allowing students to participate in extracurricular activities, including sports teams, that reflect their gender identity. (2) Made it mandatory for school staff to deny students' request to informally change pronouns if they're under 16 and their parents don't consent.
