Statement in response to the Supreme Court ruling of 16 April 2025 on the definition of woman by biological sex under the Equality Act 2010 and the guidance published by the Equality and Human Rights Commission.
All staff in Film and Television Studies recognise and share the concerns of students and colleagues regarding the Supreme Court’s ruling of 16 April 2025. We strive to create a learning environment that is safe for all and that fosters a spirit of respect. As researchers, teachers and learners we have long been committed to inclusive teaching and research through the exploration of the full spectrum of sex and gender. We will continue to promote a community where everyone is accepted, valued, and respected, and reaffirm that Film and Television Studies will always welcome trans, intersex and non-binary people.
Supporting our students and colleagues affected by the ruling is particularly important at this time. Students can speak to their personal tutors and staff to their line managers. Additional support and resources can also be found here:
