Anti-Bullying Week: LGBT+ assembly resources

To mark this year’s Anti-Bullying Week, resources have been made available to help schools host LGBT+ inclusive assemblies.

Published by LGBT+ inclusive education charity Just Like Us, the resources are to help staff deliver assemblies designed for pupils who might not yet have much knowledge of LGBT+ topics.

Anti-Bullying Week takes place from November 15 to 19 and the new resources come after its research showed that 91 per cent of LGBT+ pupils hear hateful language.

Furthermore, LGBT+ secondary pupils are twice as likely to have been bullied in the past year (43 per cent compared to 21 per cent of their non-LGBT+ peers) and a third (33 per cent) say there is no clear process for reporting anti-LGBT+ bullying at their school.
