• Relationships and Sexuality

Relationships and sexuality education (RSE) is required to be taught in all state and state-integrated schools. RSE is important to children and young people’s physical and mental health, and their safety. However, there are differing views on what, when, and how much should be taught in schools, with a particular focus on sensitive RSE topics. This technical report describes what we did to understand how well RSE is currently taught and how well it meets the needs of students, expectations of parents, and capabilities of schools.
