Unfortunately discrimination does happen in workplaces. If you would like to talk to someone about being an LGBT teacher in Scotland please contact LGBT@eis.org.uk where you will be put in touch with a classroom teacher or a college lecturer for information and advice in complete confidence.

The EIS LGBT+ Network is an informal network which meets 2-3 times per year and shares information and updates between meetings. Details about the next meeting of the network will follow shortly. 

The Network:

  • Connects EIS members who identify as LGBT+ or as allies for LGBT+ equality
  • Advises the Equality Committee on LGBT+ equality and discrimination issues
  • Provides opportunities for members to attend events, CPD, conferences and seminars
  • Keeps members up to date with equality news and initiatives
  • Gives members the chance to shape EIS policy

If you would like more information on the LGBT Network, or are interested in joining, please contact Natalie Carroll.
