LGBT Inclusion

Wellacre is committed to a whole school approach to raise awareness, celebrate difference and prevent homophobic, bi-phobic and transphobic (HBT) bullying. 

We stand for equality, celebrate difference and diversity, bringing young people together to celebrate what makes them and others unique. 

We stand as a community which speaks out against injustice and holds respectful relationships at its core. 

We are committed to our anti-bullying practice.  We recognise the challenges which our young people face and we work hard to provide the right support at the right time.  

We have designated, well trained staff and well informed students that help to create a supportive and inclusive environment, which is at the core of our philosophy.  We want our students to feel safe and happy and we provide various avenues for support and advice.

Students can access information from our Inclusion Base (The Hub) and Library - where we have leaflets and advice which reach out to LGBT students and signpost support on offer both in and out of school.

We continue to build on the considerable achievements of work over many years with the Proud Trust and the Rainbow Flag Award. We have a team of trained Wellacre Buddies who advocate allyship around Inclusion, for example, through assemblies, RESPECT lessons and school events. .
