Celebrating Difference: A Whole-School Approach to Lgbt+ Inclusion

By Shaun Dellenty

Celebrating Difference is a groundbreaking book about compassion, upholding basic human rights and empowering young people to be themselves in school, whoever they may be. It presents an inspiring and effective approach to LGBT+ inclusion in education, guiding every school on a journey towards organisational change. Shaun Dellenty examines the roots and impact of identity-based prejudice in schools and provides practical strategies to prevent bullying and improve outcomes such as attendance and attainment. Shaun's six-tier approach begins with individual self-reflection and leading team conversations, before moving on to planning and implementing strategic development, evaluating progress, representing LGBT+ identities and disseminating best practice. Featuring case studies, reflective questions, classroom-based teaching ideas and research insights from Dr Joseph Hall, Celebrating Difference is a must-read guide for all teachers, school leaders, governors and teacher training faculties who want to promote inclusion, embrace diversity and ensure safer futures for all young people.
