LGBTQ+ Information

UNCRC Article 2 states all children have the rights set out in the UNCRC, and individual children and young people shouldn’t be discriminated against when these rights are realised. This covers both direct and indirect discrimination.

 It is important that educators and parents protect all children regardless of their ethnicity, gender, religion, ability, status, or background.  This includes LGBTQ+ children.
