Dear @thetimes @SianGriffiths6
Why's the hijab being sexualised?
Yet it's ok for the same 5 year olds to have sex education lessions?

Sexual connotations for a 5 year old? Are you really saying that? Has it occured to you that its a worn as a religious symbol?
But of what? Modesty as a religious virtue. Gender-specific modesty codes don't get better because they're religious.
If something is of my faith I uphold it regardless of liberal sensitivities. Where is your 'tolerance' or as always Islam is the exception?
And I defend your right to do so. Wear a hijab if you wish. Don't expect schools to help you enforce this on primary school children.
There is no enforcement. If parents wish to make the choice then the're free to do so. Only reason this is a story is because it's Muslims.
Its not the parents who are forced to put little girls in hijabs, no. It's the little girls who have to dress as their parents tell them.
In the same way you'd like your children to be 'Liberals' others want them distinctly 'Muslim' also. Please understand this and move on.
I would like my child to be a liberal. However, i will not force her to wear slogans declaring liberalism b4 she is old enough to understand
