The world is changing through ICT and it becoming like a small village. Rapidly growing information and communication technology is changing the life of mankind around the earth with reference to the desired development. People are going to be development oriented. In many parts of the world as well our country some particular groups, communities, people stayed always at margin due to orthodox thoughts, lack of awareness or improper planning and policies for development of society and world community as well. The very well known ‘Hijra’ community is also living on margins socially, educationally, economically, psycho-socially and psycho-sexually. They are also fighting form hundreds years for their identity and rights. Conclusion of discussion in this paper can be understand as inclusion of transgender children or persons in mainstream education system or in society; needs adequate learning environment or social acceptance. Pre-service and in-service teachers must be sensitized to deal with class which has transgender children, besides content and pedagogic based modifications. It is recommended in the light of discussion that in case of transgender children’s education; in-service and pre-service teacher training programmes should be conducted comprehensively. Present teacher training programme should be restructured by adding the content related to transgender community; like their historical background, life style, culture, rituals, customs, life skills, psycho-social conditions, psycho-sexual aspects, involvement in different money earning activities, involvement in sex work, legal provisions and schemes for their welfare must be included as an unit in present pre-service teacher training programme under Gender, School and Society subject/paper. The addition of this would enhance the understanding among our trainee teachers and trainee teacher educators about transgender and they will not hesitate to discuss issues related to this community
