International Women’s Day 2026 resources for schools

Just Like Us has LGBT+ inclusive resources for celebrating International Women’s Day 2026 in secondary schools.

International Women’s Day (8 March) celebrates the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women.

The International Women’s Day 2026 resource pack includes posters and display materials, as well as a form time session on LGBT+ women trailblazers featuring video content from our Just Like Us ambassadors.

Pupils are encouraged to consider challenges LGBT+ women might face, and how to be allies to LGBT+ women.

Just Like Us creates resource packs for schools throughout the year, marking events like International Women’s Day, LGBT+ History Month and School Diversity Week.

Our resource library also features LGBT+ inclusive resources for all Key Stages and subjects in primary schools, secondary schools and colleges.

Independent research has found a link between positive messaging about being LGBT+ in schools and pupils having better mental health, regardless of whether the pupils are LGBT+ or not.

LGBT-inclusive environments at home and at school are also linked to better outcomes for LGBT+ young people, from their mental health to their relationships to their optimism about the future, that last into adulthood.
