Sexual health education - what a disaster

I am currently learning more about the way that sex education is delivered in schools in the UK and it is, frankly, appauling.

Did you know that Britain has one of the highest rates of teen pregnancy and STIs (Sexually Transmitted Infections) in Europe (if not the world)??

We are letting our young people down because they are just not learning about it, or they are in some places but not in others.

My question today is: Do you think sex education should be compulsory in schools and why?

Let me know what you think.

Here's to finding a way to help young people learn about sex and how to look after themselves.
