TACKLE HOMOPHOBIA

Members Area

Tacade is working in four areas of the United Kingdom (UK) providing support, guidance, resources and training to primary and secondary schools. The work is funded by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation and is taking place over two academic years 2009/10 and 2010/11, but will be sustained beyond the lifetime of the project as a result of partnership working. The learning from this project will be shared throughout the UK.

Tacade is currently working with schools in Edinburgh and Newport helping them tackle homophobia in partnership with the City of Edinburgh Council and Newport City Council respectively, along with Third Sector organisations such as LGBT Youth Scotland, Stonewall and Stonewall Cymru. Tacade will also be working with schools in Northern Ireland and an area of England. Formal partnership arrangements for working in these areas are currently being negotiated.

This section of the website will provide information to schools in the areas that the project is working in with information about local training events and contacts.
