School with LGBTQ+ rainbow cross "received hundreds of abusive messages"
Woodside High School is located in London's Wood Green
A school that has received "over 200 abusive messages" about a rainbow-coloured road crossing has vowed to continue its work supporting equality.
The crossing was installed outside Woodside High School, in London's Wood Green, last week to mark LGBT+ History Month after a campaign from its students.
And while the move received dozens of supportive messages online, the school revealed in a tweet it had received over 200 abusive messages in four days.
Woodside High head Gerry Robinson said: "The hundreds of abusive messages regarding Woodside's work on equality will not deter us from continuing our work.
"In fact, it only encourages us further for we do not want our students to go out into the world and face such hate."
