The Catholic Education Service did not receive any outside funding for either writing, printing or distributing its document on homophobia, a spokesman has said.
The booklet, titled Made in God’s Image, is due to be distributed to Catholic schools across the country, and gives lesson plans for teachers on dealing with bullying against same-sex attracted pupils.
A covering letter accompanying the document, reported online, had stated the CES has “received funding to cover the printing and distribution of a hard copy for each school”.
