We believe that education is the most effective tool to address prejudice, foster understanding, and ensure every learner feels included and respected.
Founded in 2015 as the grassroots TIE Campaign, we built and led the movement that resulted in Scotland becoming the first country in the world to commit to LGBT Inclusive Education across the curriculum. Today, as an established education charity and specialists in anti-prejudice education, we work to turn that national commitment into consistent, meaningful practice across schools and education settings.
We employ qualified teachers to deliver high-quality curriculum resources, learner workshops, and professional learning.
Our work on LGBT Inclusive Education supports national guidance in Scotland, helps young people feel represented and included in their learning, and reduces the stigma and stereotypes that can lead to prejudice and homophobic bullying. Our workshops and resources also address the wider, interconnected forms of prejudice that young people experience, including gender stereotypes, misogyny, and racism.
Through our partnership with the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) in Germany, we also deliver professional learning and resources to support schools to counter the effects of online hate and disinformation, and to develop learners’ critical thinking and digital media literacy. This work is delivered through our Digital Discourse Initiative programme.
All of our resources and services for schools are provided free of charge.
Further information on LGBT Inclusive Education in Scotland is available from Education Scotland and in the Scottish Government’s national guidance.
