LGBT+ teacher training

Ensure your staff and pupils feel safe and supported.

Increase your confidence through training

Nearly two in 10 teachers feel uncomfortable talking about LGBT+ topics in the classroom. We know from working with school staff every day that this is rarely about willingness but much more about confidence.

How can you and your colleagues become more comfortable tackling bullying and dealing with questions about LGBT+ topics in school? Training builds knowledge and confidence.

Just Like Us has three, free e-learning training courses available.

“To hear from people with lived experience was really valuable. Just Like Us’ teacher training is really useful and I am excited to make our school more friendly and inclusive.”
