Social Media Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 In a significant development, reports suggest that age limits will be introduced for the first time regarding the teaching of sex education in schools. Under the proposed guidelines, children will not receive any form of sex education until they reach the age of nine, marking a pivotal shift in educational policy. Key Provisions: 1. Age Restrictions: Schools will be instructed not to commence sex education until year 5, when students are approximately nine years old. 2. Gender Identity: Children will not be taught about changing their gender, reflecting a conservative stance on gender-related discussions. 3. Explicit Content: Any explicit conversations about sexuality will be prohibited until the age of 13, ensuring a gradual introduction to sensitive topics. 4. Contraception and Health: Detailed discussions on contraception, sexually transmitted infections, and abortion will be introduced at the age of 13, aligning with broader health education initiatives. Government Response: Education Secretary Gillian Keegan is expected to unveil these measures in response to concerns regarding age-inappropriate content in relationships, sex, and health education. The proposed guidelines aim to address these concerns and provide parents with greater transparency regarding the educational material. Implementation and Impact: Schools will be mandated to furnish parents with samples of the curriculum their children will receive, fostering greater parental involvement in their child's education. These changes come in the wake of the compulsory introduction of relationships, sex, and health education (RSHE) in all English schools in September 2020. Existing Curriculum: The current RSHE framework covers a wide range of topics, including diverse family structures and healthy relationships for primary school children. Secondary school students delve into more complex subjects such as puberty, consent, and online safety. Department for Education Response: While the Department for Education refrained from confirming the reports, it emphasized a commitment to providing comprehensive education while respecting age-appropriate boundaries. The department neither confirmed nor denied the leaked information, citing a policy against speculating on unofficial disclosures.

JonnyF Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Good news. This should limit the opportunity for Woke lefty teachers to start putting ideas of transitioning into the minds of impressionable young children. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaibeachlovers Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 There were no age limits on sex education in my schools. Didn't make any difference as we didn't have any sex education. A teacher once told us to get a bed with a strong foot board, if that suffices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purdey Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 At what age to the oldies on the forum think kids start filling around sexually? The family village had two 11 year olds who were sneaking off for sex constantly. I remember kids that age exploring each other's bodies at that age too.
