Our LGBTQ+ Silver Charter Journey

This year, we embarked on the journey to achieving our Silver Level Charter from LGBT Youth Scotland. We’ve celebrated many commemorative days; helped to foster more understanding and acceptance within our school community; and gained a better insight into how we can best support the LGBTQ+ community both inside and outside of the school building.

We still have a long journey ahead of us, but our goal of making Inverurie Academy and the surrounding community a safe space for everyone will continue to drive us towards making a positive change.

We hope to be able to add our Silver Level badge here soon (so watch this space!).

Below you’ll find a list of resources for anyone who is looking for more information or advice.
