The fallout from the Citipointe College scandal

A Brisbane Christian college has backflipped on its policy that required parents a sign a contract, that said children could be expelled based on their sexual orientation or gender identity.

We’re joined by the YouTube star and comedian, Christian Hull, who has led the campaign to have the contract ripped up. We also talk to Natalie Pole, a parent of two students starting school at Citipointe College this week. The school says it “deeply regrets” that the contracts made students feel discriminated against, but the principal says the school has the right to maintain its ethos and the “freedom to continue to provide an education based on our shared beliefs”.

The furore over the Citipoint Christian College contract then led Prime Minister Scott Morrison to re-commit to changing laws that let religious schools try to expel gay or transgender students
