Any Primary Education Teachers?
I (26MTF) am a teacher who just socially transitioned over the summer. I am very lucky in that the school that I teach at has about 50% queer staff and probably a similar ratio in the student body. Many students have told me, however, about how homophobic/transphobic their families are at home. Given that it’s a small, remote community, I’m little concerned for how this upcoming year is going to look.
Has anyone else gone through transition while working in a school? Is there anything that worked/didn’t? Anything to be aware of or cautious about?
