Investigating school experiences of English trans youth: Working with young people to create best practice policy guidelines.

这个混合方法的研究项目旨在调查英国学校中跨性别青年的现状，以以前的研究和政策为基础，为教育机构与这些年轻人合作（通过焦点小组）制定最佳实践指南。课程分析的结果与这些焦点小组的见解相结合，以考虑为什么相关的现有法律和指导方针似乎没有反映在大多数实际的学校实践中。此外，该研究还使用大规模的定量数据来统计分析各种确定的跨性别排斥或保护因素对跨性别年轻人的整体学校经历和福祉的贡献。

This mixed methods research project aims to investigate the current experiences of trans youth in English schools, building on previous research and policy to produce best practice guidelines for educational establishments in collaboration (through focus groups) with these young people. Results from curriculum analysis are used in combination with insights from these focus groups to consider why relevant existing laws and guidelines do not appear to be reflected in most actual school practice. The study additionally uses large-scale quantitative data to statistically analyse the contribution of various identified trans-exclusionary or protective factors to both the overall school experience and the wellbeing of trans young people.
