Education leaders and practitioners have been clear that they need national guidance to support trans and nonbinary children and young people to feel valued, included, and safe in their education.
We know teachers and schools are already working hard to support children and young people. Providing appropriate national guidance for schools in Wales to support trans, nonbinary and gender questioning children and young people in education is a Welsh Government commitment.
We have been working closely with school leaders, practitioners, learners and a wide range of stakeholders on the development of guidance for Wales.
A public consultation was planned for this academic year. However, we have decided to take more time to develop the guidance so that it’s informed by the best available evidence, including the findings of the Cass Review and the views of stakeholders, including learners themselves and parents.
We are committed to taking this guidance forward. All learners need to feel valued, included and safe and ensuring their wellbeing is our main priority.
Thanks to everyone, especially to the children and young people who have talked to us so far and helped develop this guidance.
