How To Stop Homophobic and Biphobic Bullying:
A Practical Whole-School Approach

“This book by Jonathan Charlesworth will be an invaluable asset. I was impressed by the careful and balanced way it is written and the very systematic way in which he presents material. The author writes sensibly and with consideration, without shirking the need to act firmly and decisively when the situation requires it. I would recommend this book as excellent and authoritative.” Peter K Smith, Goldsmiths, University of London

This vital teachers’ guide to challenging homophobic and biphobic bullying offers unique insights to address the issue at its core. Laying out clear advice on how to recognise, stop and prevent homophobic and biphobic bullying, readers are given strategies to work with its perpetrators, bystanders and targets.

Informed by interviews with hundreds of pupils and school staff, and interactive work across the UK and internationally, this is a book written by an expert in this field. It’s an essential guide for teachers, youth workers, the care sector and anyone with a duty of care towards young people.

“We love working with EACH and our students have benefited so much too. This book will be as useful to pastoral leads and SLT as “That’s So Gay” was! Definitely one to add to the reading list!” Susie Beresford-Wylie, Director of Student Support, Bradley Stoke Community School, South Gloucestershire
