Embedding LGBT into the Curriculum: What, why and how?
Embedding LGBT into the Curriculum: What, why and how?
What?
-
We worked with a group of tutors to develop and pilot teaching resources which embed LGBT at a range of levels
-
With a focus in the ESOLdefinition curriculum and transferability tested in Essential Skills and Humanities
Why?
-
To support and encourage tutors to embed an equality strand that is often neglected, particularly at entry levels
-
To challenge assumptions that LGBT is “too difficult” for some “communities of learners”
-
To support the development of resources for the sector
How?
-
Tutors volunteered to be part of the project and were paid a small fee for development of resources
-
1-2-1 support and staff development was provided
-
All resources were quality assured
