If we collaborated and worked together we could find the answer very quickly, but the game is set-up for competition, not collaboration.

At the end, you race to a room to state your findings. You then check a piece of paper. You pass or you fail. That’s it. (Ok, this last bit is just about a PhD)

All the people have pompous titles. You may or may not know what they mean.

Everyone works on their own research program.
Everyone is suspicious of everyone else and trying to learn more about what they’ve got.
Only the first one to publish gets any points.

Where possible, increase single stall, accessible toilets (not demarked by gender). This is often easy in new builds, but in my experience, existing school often do have option(s). Accessing this space can not be more difficult than accessing other toilets (no requirement to sign list or pay for key

I really love this, it’s you at the top of a mic drop.

And - local guidance about how to operationalize the protections in the code does make sense. Clarity for staff, students and families is helpful. We need to expand the guidance to make sure that nonbinary young people have access to sport and physical education. We can, and should do better
