'... Parents have received this with a shock" and "...are uncomfortable with the decision."
One mother said: "This was just introduced from the start of term and no one told us before. There are seven-year-old girls using the same toilets as 11-year-old boys.
"My daughter has said she doesn't feel comfortable about it. Although we are all up for equality we feel this is not allowing our children to choose. A lot of our children don't want to use toilets of the opposite sex." - netmums.com
