#Inclusivity

The foundation for Education and Social Justice Africa has called on the government to scrap the terms "head boy" and "head girl" in schools.
The foundation also says that these terms reinforce the mentality that leadership roles can only be occupied by individuals who conform to traditional gender identities.
It says these can be harmful to learners who identify as non-binary or transgender, as it sends the message that they are not equal or capable of holding leadership positions.
What are your thoughts on this, whatever your pronouns are. If you’re part of the queer community or not, what are your thoughts on those issue of inclusivity and is it about time we took one universal direction that is satisfactory to each one of us and which direction would that be?
