The NEU actively takes part in LGBT+ Pride events across the country. Here you can find out how to join other NEU members at Pride events.
We believe in LGBT+ inclusion and we value LGBT+ educators’ vital role in our education system. Our campaign, ‘Inclusion not Exclusion’, calls for a strong defence of LGBT+ education and support for our LGBT+ educators.
Together, we believe we can win a better education system for all.
It’s a box of materials you can order via your district that has everything you need. See the ordering form here.
Check out this list of Pride events taking place in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
Do you want to march? Do you want a stall? Do you want both? Make some preliminary decisions, including where you will want people to meet and what time, and then have a think about what resources you need. Identify how you book a place in the march and/or a stall. Contact your district secretary with a plan, detailing any costs and ask them if its agreeable.
Use this page to order your pride materials.
Use our LGBT+ educators events system to host your online rsvp page. It’s super easy to use, you just put the details of your event in the system, create an account and authenticate by responding to a confirmation email that’s sent to you. Always check your spam.
This means you have a unique online page which tells people what’s going on and gives the ability to rsvp. Check out this example here
After you’ve got your rsvp page set up, go online, and promote it in any neu facebook or whatsapp groups. Ask your district secretary to email details out to members. If you build it, they will come!
Develop a plan for the day with those who have RSVP’d. Make them feel part of a team and think about creating a special WhatsApp group.
