"A mother has reportedly pulled her children out of a school over claims a program that promotes transgender awareness is 'brainwashing' students within the institution.

Victorian mother Cella White said her 14-year-old son was told in science class that he could wear a dress to Frankston High School, about 40 kilometres south of Melbourne, and call transgender students by their preferred pronoun, the Herald Sun reported.

The government-funded program - run by the Safe Schools Coalition since 2010 - is designed to create safe and inclusive school environments for same-sex attracted, intersex and gender diverse students.

'This isn't about safe schools, it's transgenderism and gay activism bought into the classroom,' Ms White told the publication.

The mother of four said the school's policy could see children sharing a bathroom with gender-diverse students.

'It could be a year 12 student of the opposite-born sex in the bathroom with my year 7 daughter who is blind,' Ms White said."
