Midlands LGBT+ Project launch guide for secondary schools

Midlands LGBT+ Project is delighted to launch their new Guide to LGBT+ Inclusive Classrooms and Schools. 

The group says the guide has been created and launched as a direct response to help being sought by schools in the midlands in becoming more LGBT+ inclusive. 

“We are launching this new guide this week to coincide with our training for teachers, youth workers and mental health professionals in the region, over the coming weeks we will train over 100 people who directly work with LGBT+ young people and we are hoping this guide will go back to classrooms and be used to help support teachers and school staff learn more about LGBT+ inclusivity and ultimately improve the lives of the LGBT+ they work with," said a statement.

Midlands LGBT+ Project is a support and awareness service for LGBT+ people in the Midlands. They provide peer support groups, social meet up’s, awareness events, parents support and training for schools and organisations.
