Today, Scotland is the first country in the world to commit to a national rollout of LGBT Inclusive Education. But it was only just over 20 years ago that a piece of public sector legislation prohibited the teaching of LGBT lives and relationships in schools.
So many of Scotland’s teachers and students lived through the devastating effects of Section 2A (known as Section 28 in England and Wales).
What can we learn from their stories of the past, to help us take LGBT Inclusive Education forward in the present? This film shows a collection of stories of people's experience of Section 2A.
