Secondary schools to get guidelines on gay rights [eecho.ie]

Secondary schools are to get guidelines on how to combat the harassment of gay and lesbian teachers.

The Association of Secondary Teachers of Ireland has compiled a code of practice on equal gay rights and will issue it to schools next week.

The code will deal with the homophobic harassment and victimisation of staff.

Head of the union’s equal opportunities committee Mary Ohle says teachers working in religious-run schools are "afraid to come out".
