Unisex toilet will help child feel safe and accepted at school.

A popular AucklandNew Zealand primary school has been praised for installing a unisex toilet to help a 6-year-old transgender pupil feel safe and accepted.

The toilet was installed earlier this year with the support of the Board of Trustees and the Education Ministry after the child’s transition from boy to girl.

The Herald on Sunday has chosen not to name the school to protect the child’s privacy. Sources said that school-mates have happily accepted the child’s transition and parents who know the girl have also been supportive.
