Post-primary pupils must be taught about access to abortion and preventing early pregnancy under new regulations in Parliament laid down by chhcalling
It will be compulsory for all post-primary schools in Northern Ireland to teach pupils about access to abortion and prevention of early pregnancy.
In practice that will mean pupils have to be taught about issues like how to prevent a pregnancy, the legal right to an abortion in Northern Ireland, and how relevant services may be accessed.
"However, nearly four years have passed since the Northern Ireland Act 2019, adolescents in Northern Ireland are still not receiving comprehensive and scientifically accurate education on sexual and reproductive health and rights." But according to Mr Heaton-Harris, that act also required him to implement recommendations on RSE contained in the CEDAW report.
Although the changes to the RSE curriculum will come into effect from 1 July, the Department of Education must issue guidance to schools by 1 January 2024 on what they are required to teach.
