The Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL) is calling for compulsory gender diversity training for those in sixth form college and further education to avoid individuals using “incorrect” pronouns.

Leslie Tipping, ATL Wales president, said: “Lecturers could be put in quite an embarrassing position if they address someone as a he who is a she or neither a he or a she.”

She said, without training, staff “could end up with legal issues”.
