The motion

That the Parliament commends Kirkcaldy High School (KHS) on becoming only the second state school in Scotland to be awarded a gold charter by LGBT Youth Scotland; understands that the programme was developed to support businesses and organisations to undertake training, review policies, practice and resources to ensure that they are as inclusive as they can be; believes the award of the LGBT charter to KHS sends out a strong, positive message that the school is a champion of LGBT inclusion; notes the work of the school’s LGBT group, which has led the way in tackling homophobia and discrimination; applauds the many accolades received by individuals members and the collective group since its inception, and wishes all staff and pupils at KHS the very best for the future.
