LGBT History Month 2022: Assembly and Lesson for Schools
Every February, Scotland celebrates LGBT History Month – a chance to connect and to reflect on the past and present of the LGBT community.
Since 2007, LGBT History Month has been coordinated by LGBT Youth Scotland. Each year has a different theme, and the LGBT Charter team develops learning activities and assemblies to help schools get involved.

You can now download LGBT Youth Scotland's learning resources for LGBT History Month 2022:
- A 50 minute lesson about international LGBT rights and equality, which can be used in Social Subjects or PSE, along with accompanying Lesson Plan.
- A 15-20 minute assembly about LGBT History Month more generally, with an international viewpoint.
LGBT History Month is a great opportunity to celebrate LGBT culture and progress towards equality over time, and to explore what the lessons of history can teach us for the future.
We hope lots of schools around Scotland will get involved - be sure to let us know by tagging @LGBTYS and @LGBTHistoryScot on Twitter!
