Inclusive Classroom Public Meeting

Inclusive Classroom Public Meeting

Join Ruthless International for the Inclusive Classroom public meeting — a creative and community-led project exploring the heritage of queer education in the UK.

We’re bringing together educators, learners, youth workers, organisers, and allies to reflect on lived experiences of LGBTQIA+ inclusion (and exclusion) in education. Through workshops, intergenerational dialogues, and oral histories, we’ll co-create public storytelling outputs that celebrate, challenge, and document these histories.

This public meeting will:

• Introduce the Inclusive Classroom project
• Share the different ways you can get involved
• Outline the themes we’ll be exploring
• Answer any questions you have

Ways to participate after the meeting:

• Storytelling workshops (in person): Sharing and exploring lived experience
• Intergenerational dialogue events (in person): Cross-generational conversations on queer education
• One-to-one recorded interviews (online): Share your story in more depth, remotely and flexibly

💷 All in-person activities include a £50 stipend for participants. Oral history recordings are remote and supported by our team.

The project will result in:

• 🎙 A 6-part podcast series
• 🖼 A pop-up public exhibition
• 📚 A digital archive hosted with the Bishopsgate Institute

Podcast themes include:

• Solidarity in the Staffroom – unions and collective resistance in education
• Our Own Curriculum – POC-led queer organising and community learning
• Borders and Blackboards – international and diaspora experiences of queer education
• Learning in the Margins – zines, workshops, peer education, and creative learning spaces
• The Language of Inclusion – evolving language, identity, and policy
• Future Lessons – intergenerational reflections and radical imagination
