research reveals that the reality for trans pupils in British schools is starkly different from the one imagined by anti-trans campaign groups. Seventy-seven per cent of LGBTQ+ pupils say they have never received any school-based education about gender identity and what being ‘trans’ means; 33 per cent of trans pupils are not able to be known by their preferred name at school; 58 per cent are not allowed to use the toilets in which they feel comfortable.
