Safe schools reaches 100

Safe schools reaches 100

Glen Eira College and Elwood College were the 100th and 101st schools to join Safe Schools Coalition Victoria to make their schools more welcoming for same-sex attracted students.

The two schools joined the coalition on the same day and was announced at the Same-Sex Formal held earlier this month.

Since 2010, the coalition has worked with more than 2,500 school staff and thousands of students.

Roz Ward, SSCV co-founder and co-ordinator said it was very exciting to welcome their 100th school to the coalition.

“It is very exciting to welcome our 100th school to the coalition. When we launched back in 2010 nobody quite knew just how popular the coalition would become,” she said.

“We have received so much positive feedback; we just know this making a difference to students all across Victoria, and in all different kinds of schools.”

Support the Star Observer… while you still can

LGBTQIA+ media is under threat. Queer content is censored by tech conglomerates who amplify bigotry and push out AI slop — so we receive less financial support than ever.

When our community is muzzled and intolerance intensifies, we need queer media more than ever. Your donation means we can continue paying queer journalists to write queer news.

Don’t rely on the straight lies of big tech – support Star Observer instead and donate now.
