Rejected petition LTGTQ issues to be taught on the U.K. high school curriculum

As a homosexual male, most of my high school career was spent being bullied for something that I hadn't come to terms with yet. It was never explained in school the difference between acknowledging that you're gay and accepting it. I remember this was never taught in class.

More details

But why does it matter?
A report for Stonewall, found that nine in ten secondary school teachers say students in their schools are bullied, harassed or called names for being – or perceived to be – lesbian, gay or bi.
