Getting started with Gender Action

Becoming a Gender Action Supporter is about more than ticking boxes and jumping through hoops, it is about challenging stereotyping in all aspects of school life.

We’re confident nurseries and schools can become beacons of gender equality if:

There is a commitment from the whole nursery, school or college
Staff, students, parents and governors need to be on board. Ensuring the manager, head, and senior leadership are supportive of your nursery or school’s participation is vital.

The resources are in place to support this commitment
As you progress through the framework, there may be training opportunities to line up, and information and insights shared throughout the nursery and school.
