Case Study 3 - Kite

Kite is an 18-year-old Brotherboy (a term used by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People used to describe gender diverse people who have a male spirit) who is transitioning gender to be a man. He has recently completed his Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care and is interviewing for an Early Childhood Educator position at Little Catalysts ELC. Kite hopes to get some experience before doing his Diploma, as he would like to be a Kindergarten Teacher one day.

Kite is very passionate about sharing his Aboriginal culture with the children and his experience of believing that he is a male living in a female body, how he had to do things at school being a 'girl', with which he wasn't comfortable. Kite hopes to 'shed light on the world', that he is no different than anyone else and just wants to be happy being himself. Due to his past trauma, Kite has a monthly meeting with his counsellor.

Kite was interviewed by: Carol, the Director; Anthony, the Educational Leader; and Tanya, a Kindergarten educator. Carol thought Kite would be an asset to the service. He presented himself confidently during the interview and had 'good vibes'. Tanya shared that she was worried about saying the wrong thing to Kite if he started at the service. She felt inexperienced with LGBTQIA+ protocols.

Kite is worried that he might not get the job due to his age, sex and Indigenous background. He's concerned that needing a day off every month to see his counsellor for his mental health may inhibit his chances of employment.
