Rainbow Flag Award – Positive Learning Resources for Parents

Rainbow Flag Award – Positive Learning Resources for Parents

Harton Academy continues to drive towards further inclusion within our school. Below are learning resources for parents/carers/guardians who have dependents within the LGBT+ community.

This video enables parents and carers to have a deeper understanding of how to support their LGBT+ child and where to access mental health support.

 

This workshop video helps demonstrate the challenges that children experience regarding LGBTphobia and delves deeper into different aspects of the community.

Please also find below resources to support parents and carers who have dependents within the LGBT+ community. This is taken from the FFLAG website https://www.fflag.org.uk/.
