Guidance document for schools on working with parents, carers and families about sexuality and sexual health education
Parents and carers are the first and continuing educators of their young people. They have a shared responsibility to determine what is considered appropriate, which includes sharing information as well as sharing personal and cultural values with their young people.
The guidance document for schools on working with parents, carers and families about sexuality and sexual health education aims to support secondary schools in NSW in their communication with parents, carers and families about sexuality and sexual health education (SSHE) in school. These materials are for use by any school staff who are working with parents, carers and families.
This document supports a whole-of-school approach, which recognises that SSHE messages are more effective when they are well-planned and consistent across schools and the community.
