England has been urged to follow Scotland in introducing an LGBTI action plan, with praise for inclusive education policies. In 2018 the UK Government published a comprehensive LGBT action plan taking in such areas as health, education, safety and the workplace. However, that ended the following year and the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI), established by the Council of Europe, has urged authorities in England “as a matter of priority” to adopt a new action plan. The report points to an action plan developed in Wales and Scotland’s ‘Building Racial Literacy’ programme in Scotland.
