"A new report claims many state-run schools in the US are failing to protect vulnerable LGBT students.
The research, carried out by Human Rights Watch, argues that there is "a lack of policies and practices that affirm and support LGBT youth – and a failure to implement protections that do exist".
The report claims the current situation leaves students nationwide facing bullying, exclusion and discrimination, putting them at physical and psychological risk and limiting their education. "
