flag Scottish schools must offer sex-based toilets but can provide accommodations for transgender students.

flag Schools in Scotland must provide separate toilets for boys and girls based on biological sex, per updated government guidance following UK Supreme Court rulings that define sex under the Equality Act 2010 as biological. flag While single-sex facilities are required, schools are encouraged to consider gender-neutral options for transgender students to support their wellbeing and prevent outing. flag Practical accommodations, such as off-peak access or private facilities, are advised, and forcing transgender students to wear uniforms inconsistent with their gender identity may constitute discrimination. flag The guidance aims to balance legal requirements with student wellbeing, though the Scottish Conservatives criticized it as contradictory. flag Education Secretary Jenny Gilruth said the government seeks to uphold all children’s rights while supporting transgender youth.
