The New South Wales Government has described planned Federal Government changes to the Safe Schools anti-bullying program as "sensible", despite concerns being raised elsewhere.

The anti-bullying program, which targets lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students, was the subject of a Federal Government review.

Federal Education Minister Simon Birmingham has demanded a range of changes, including removing content and requiring more parental consent.

"The federal Minister has outlined some sensible changes," NSW Education Minister Adrian Piccoli told the ABC in a statement on Sunday.

"I have asked my department for urgent advice on how they are best implemented."

The ACT and Victorian governments say the changes go too far.

On Saturday, Victoria's Education Minister James Merlino said the program content had already been approved by curriculum experts and would remain intact.

"Absolutely we can go it alone and we will if we need to," he said.

"The [Federal] Government's recommendations completely undermine the Safe Schools program."

Human Rights Commission president Gillian Triggs said she welcomed the review.

"It's been a proper process. It's based on a lot of experience and I think that, for the moment, it would be reasonable to accept this," she said.

"But perhaps in the future, when the program has been properly and fully assessed — parents have discussed it with school teachers — then it might be appropriate to extend it to slightly younger students."

A review of the program was held following strong criticism from conservative Coalition MPs and senators, who said they were worried about the appropriateness of the material for students.

Mr Piccoli was unavailable beyond providing a statement to the ABC.
