- Outcomes
-
Our Introduction to LGBTQ+ workshop allows us to give students an overview on the LGBTQ+ community. This workshop is based around acceptance and being respectful towards others.
We explain what the letters LGBT stand for and show some examples of celebrities they may know. We explain a handful of terms the children may have heard such as being:
- non-binary
- pansexual
- asexual
- ally
- queer
We then move onto the way in which people in the LGBTQ+ community are accepted within marriage, jobs and more, and the different types of families there are. For example, two mums.
Finally, we look at gender roles in society and encourage the children that they can become whatever they want.
We hope following this workshop, the students will have a better understanding of the LGBTQ+ community and continue to treat everyone with the respect they expect themselves.
