Sexuality education (SEd) aims to help our young understand the
physiological, social and emotional changes they experience as they mature,
develop healthy relationships with the opposite sex and to teach them how to
make responsible choices. It is premised on the importance of the
heterosexual married family as the basic unit of society, and respect for the
values and beliefs of the different ethnic and religious communities on
sexuality issues.
The
goals of SEd are to:
i. provide accurate and adequate knowledge on human sexuality
and the consequences of sexual activity so that pupils are able
to make informed decisions;
ii. impart intra- and inter-personal skills of problem-solving,
decision-making and effective communication so that pupils are
able to build responsible and rewarding relationships; and
iii. inculcate positive values and attitudes of sexuality so that pupils
develop a respect for themselves and others as sexual beings,
in line with the national value of the family as the basic unit of
society.
The
key messages of SEd are:
i. Build healthy futures for yourself, family and society.
ii. Healthy relationships based on love and respect are the
foundation for strong families.
iii. Casual sex can lead to unwanted pregnancies, STIs/HIV and
AIDS which can harm and hurt your loved ones.
