This book solves this issue, by providing everything you need to know to make your school an LGBT+ friendly place. TEACH SECONDARY AWARDS FINALIST Currently teachers don't receive the training or induction they need to make their school an LGBT inclusive environment. This can be seen by the fact that half of schools do not teach anything regarding LGBT , and only 3% include LGBT content in two or more subjects. This book will help transform your school into a safe and inclusive place for all students. Written with Educate & Celebrate!, an Ofsted and DFE recognised 'Best Practice Award Programme', this book gives teachers, governors and other staff the knowledge, strategies and confidence they need to implement a curriculum that is inclusive for all. Covering the changes to law, including the Equality Act 2010 which requires actively promoting acceptance, what language to use, case studies and much more, it is a must have guide for all schools.
