Launch a review into increasing the teaching of LGBTQ education in schools

Open for signatures 104 signatures

What the petition asks

We ask the Government to a launch a review into increasing the overall education of LGBTQ topics in schools, as many young queer kids don’t have anyone to ask, especially if they’re closeted. We believe schools are scared to bring up LGBTQ topics.
We believe increasing the teaching of LGBTQ education in schools could make everyone feel included and help young people in Britain. It could improve public understanding of LGBTQ topics and may help to stop minor hate crimes and bullying in schools.
