More Than Flags And Rainbows

Should pride be banned in Catholic schools?

We are pleased to announce that the Welsh Government has reconsidered and relocated the upcoming Wales Secondary Headteachers Conference. This step sends a strong message that there is no place for homophobia in modern British society and we will not support organisations that support conversion therapy. We urge all organisations to carefully evaluate the venues they use, specifically considering the implications of holding events at locations such as the All Nations Church and Centre. By making thoughtful choices, we can collectively promote an environment where all feel safe, valued, and respected. Together, we’re building a brighter, more inclusive future.

Is putting up flags and rainbows in Pride month really enough to develop true inclusion? Of course not, but this is the reality in many organisations.

🌍✨ Happy *International Pronouns Day*! Primary school is where children begin learning about respect, individuality, and inclusion—essential skills that lay the groundwork for understanding and respecting pronouns later in life. By nurturing these values early on, we create the foundation for a more inclusive society. To support this journey, we're excited to add these fantastic books to our Diverse Book List this week: 📚 *The Perfect Fit* by Naomi Jones (@naomi_jones_) – A heartwarming story about Triangle's quest to find where she belongs, showing that even when we feel different, we all have a place in the world. 📚 *Super Duper You* by Sophy Henn (@sophyhenn) – A vibrant celebration of self-expression, encouraging children to embrace all the things that make them wonderfully unique. 📚 *Wild* by Emily Hughes (@plumvinyl) – A stunning tale of a girl raised in nature, reminding us that there’s beauty and freedom in being true to yourself, no matter how different you may feel. 📚 *What Makes Me A Me?* by Ben Faulks (@BenFaulks_1) – A fun, thought-provoking exploration of identity that invites children to reflect on what makes them special. Each of these stories helps children explore the beauty of individuality, making them perfect for sparking conversations on diversity and respect from an early age. Let’s continue to celebrate and respect everyone’s unique identity—pronouns included! 🌈✨ Find all of these books at https://lnkd.in/eT6udqUE #InternationalPronounsDay #Diversity #Inclusion #Respect #LGBTQ #Education #PrimarySchool
