#transschool

All terms coined by @cischaracter here and here!

This is a picture of what the main hallway in my high school looked like last week. When I went there, nobody was really out, except for my gay science teacher. There was absolutely no mention of the words queer or trans in the classroom. At a time when states like Indiana are attempting to ban any discussion of gender or sexuality without parental consent, when trans students have to sue their schools just to be recognized, this gives me hope. #schooloftrans #transschool

Do you want to come to our School Revision: Trans Inclusion in Education event? If you are a young person who attends our youth groups or a parent or carer who will be keen to also attend, please register your interest  Be sure to let us know that you are from Gendered Intelligence (by adding that where it says ‘other’ regarding where you’re from etc.) We have 8 places left for our young members and their parents/carers. If you are a member of the trans community, work in education, are a journalist or work in a sector that is involved in improving school life you might also be interested in attending the day - please register your interest alongside others! School Revision is all about starting to imagine what school life for young, trans people could look like in the future. Organised in collaboration with Juno Roche, Wipe Out Transphobia, Gendered Intelligence and All About Trans, the day-long event will be held in a primary school and planned around the daily life of gender variant school pupils. We are inviting participants from the trans community, education sector, local authorities and the media to take part in interactive lessons and workshops throughout the day. Lessons include Biology, P.E., Design & Technology, Drama, Media Studies and more.  These will be led by trans speakers and teachers and designed as if the education environment and curriculum was inclusive of trans and non-binary people. Check out the full schedule. Participants will have the opportunity to network and take useful resources, valuable learning and practical action points away with them which will be applicable in the workplace. Free to attend and with refreshments and lunch provided, the event is held at Lark Hall Primary School in Stockwell, south London, on Saturday 11th June from 9.30am to 4pm. Places are limited in the school so please register your interest and tell us why you’d like to take part.
