A part-time music tutor is taking Sydney Catholic Schools to court, demanding an apology and compensation for financial damages.

The trans person, who identifies as a woman, says she suffered “confronting, humiliating, insulting, and intimidating” questioning about her appearance after she revealed her new gender identity and preferred pronouns in late 2023.
