Sumario:The identification and response of teachers and other educational agents to LGBTQ + bullying is essential to prevent and eradicate it. The present study explored the perception of these agents regarding LGBTQ + bullying in their schools. A qualitative approach based on 15 semi-structured interviews was used. The answers were analyzed using a thematic analysis. The results show an advance in the sensitization regarding sexual and gender diversity in schools. However, they also show an under-identification of LGBTQ + violence, an individualization of this problem -focusing it on the characteristics of the victim-, and a predominance of punitive responses over more inclusive strategies.
