Guidelines To Support Irish LGBT Students

Ruairi_Quinn

by E-Li

 

Minister for education and skills in Ireland, Ruairi Quinn, launched guidelines for principals to include gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender students in the policies of schools.

 

"The 21st century school should be one that is safe and supportive of all students, including lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. I am considering the establishment of a working group comprising all the relevant sections of my department, along with the NGOs involved in this area and the education partners, to help draft a roadmap towards the elimination of homophobic bullying from our schools." said Ruairi Quinn.

This intervenes after research showed that most of the LGBT students experimented homophobic abuse in schools.

"Homophobic bullying can significantly impact on the educational and life chances of a young LGBT person, and unchecked, it has an impact on all students who learn the high price of being different," said Sandra Irwin-Gowran, GLEN's director of the education policy.
