Health
| Most of you will have come across Sex-ed at your school. You know what I'm talking about? The teacher's all red-faced and embarrassed when you sit in class laughing while a condom is being slipped onto a banana. Sound familiar? While it may seem pretty funny, sexual health is an important part of your school life. But different schools tackle the issue in different ways. Let's have a look at how your school shapes up. |
 |
Consider these questions:
- When does Sex-ed take place? Is it during a science class, a health class or after school?
- Are your parents invited?
- In what year does your school teach you Sex-ed?
- Does a teacher take the class, or do they get outside assistance from sexual health professionals?
- Does the subject cover sexually transmitted diseases?
- Do you discuss homosexual relationships?
- What forms of contraception are encouraged? Does advice encourage abstinence (not having sex at all) or does it encourage condoms or the pill?
