The replacement for the controversial Crossroads course in NSW schools no longer covers gender questioning and sexual fluidity, despite the government's own review saying the original content was consistent with NSW anti-discrimination laws.

Crossroads was dumped late last year amid criticism that it pushed gender theory with discussion points such as "binary thinking about gender and sexuality", and another on gender questioning, sexual identity, transgender, and same-sex attraction.

Crossroads came under similar criticism to the national Safe Schools program, with critics arguing it was inappropriate to discuss gender theory in schools.

It has been replaced with Life Ready, another 25-hour program for senior high school students that will still include modules on sexual health, sexuality and relationships but will have a greater focus on financial literacy.
