Pupils should receive teaching on lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) relationships during their school years.

Through the new subjects of Relationship Education and Relationships and Sex Education, we expect secondary schools to include LGBT content. Primary schools are enabled and encouraged to cover LGBT content if they consider it age appropriate to do so.
