TEACHERS TV
School Matters –Homophobia in Schools.
Actually children matter and this excellent programme makes that clear. All children – including those that are lesbian and gay, are thought to be lesbian and gay by others and who have lesbian and gay family or friends - have a right to an appropriate and positive education in a school that is both safe and comfortable and meets their needs.

This is a quietly considered programme, putting the arguments for both an inclusive curriculum and taking action against stereotyping, prejudice and negative discrimination. Our own Tony Fenwick works with 6 th formers and puts the case for LGBT people and issues in the curriculum with the intelligence and aplomb we have come to expect. I don’t think many teachers watch Teachers’ TV, but they should all watch this. You can see it on:

Watch it please and tell your friends.

Channel 4's Batty Man: PSHE Learning Notes

Comedian and actor Stephen K Amos uses his own experiences as a black gay man to explore why homophobia still exists in his own community.

This observational documentary – the title of which is a derogatory term for homosexuals – follows Amos on a journey from his childhood homes in Brixton and Tooting, South London, all the way to Jamaica, where he tries to discover why prejudice, intimidation and violence against gay men remain so prevalent.

The Channel Learning Website includes links, documentation and activities for the school curriculum.
