GALYIC's Ten Point Plan for Schools

  1. Provide positive information about being LGBT.
  2. Deal with homophobic bullying properly.
  3. Support young people who come out.
  4. Invite GALYIC members to give a presentation.
  5. Have an all-school approach to zero tolerance of bullying.
  6. Display the GALYIC poster (not just in 6th form).
  7. Refer young people who identify as LGBT to GALYIC: it is important that they do not remain isolated.
  8. Include LGBT issues in the curriculum.
  9. Identify named people to support LGBT Young People such as school nurses and personal advisers (although these need to have training and be gay-friendly), and
  10. Encourage your school youth council to work with the GALYIC youth council to develop an action plan.
