Some people are gay.

[Derek McMillan]

I started teaching in 1979 and I wouldn't have put up a poster like this then. I put one up in my room this week and all the comments have been positive. Some pupils were quoting it to each other as a criticism and a suggestion they might like to heed its advice.

SMT have not suggested that I take it down. It is easy to download and print one out and try it out yourself. It is a small gesture but it is just a polite (ish) way of saying homophobia is not wanted in my classroom.
