This book addresses an emerging and vital field of scholarship,
which deals with transgender- and gender-expansive-informed
education, policy, and practice. The collection provides a
framework for thinking about the relevance of Transgender Studies
for the field of education and specifically for K-12 schooling
contexts. It argues for the need to engage transgender-informed
epistemologies and provides insight into trans-affirmative
education research, policy contexts, and practices with the view to
generating knowledge about how the experiences of transgender and
non-binary youth, gender non-conformity, and gender-creative
expression are being addressed in the education system. Topics
addressed range from trans-informed policy analysis and enactment
across various contexts to addressing central concerns and polemics
related to the policing and regulation of students' gender
identities and expression, with respect to washroom space in
schools and the use of gender-neutral pronouns. The book is timely
and pertinent, especially given that transphobia and addressing
gender justice in the education system have been identified as
significant human rights issues which require urgent intervention.
Overall, this collection points to both the productive
potentialities of this emerging body of research, and the
limitations and challenges that need to continue to be addressed in
the realization of a commitment to enacting a critical trans
politics in education. This book was originally published as a
special issue of Gender and Education.
