Sex Education Australia

SEA works with schools to deliver comprehensive sex education programs in the classroom.

The Victorian Department of Education policy guidelines state that sex education is compulsory for school students from Prep to Year 10. SEA's programs are devised in accordance with the Victorian Education Learning Standards (VELS).

Primary Students
Upper primary sessions cover:

conception, pregnancy and birth
names and functions of reproductive body parts
puberty

Most schools book sessions for their Year 5/6 students and to cover all appropriate material for this age, a series of classes is recommended.

SEA can also provide younger students with education appropriate to their age and cover topics such as:

families
human development across the lifespan
identities
public/private
concept of individual differences
personal safety. [Source:vels.vcaa.vic.edu.au]

Secondary Students
Secondary sessions are tailored to your needs. We work with small groups, keeping the sessions activity- and discussion -based, or we can deliver presentations to larger groups.
Topics can include:

Puberty review
Healthy relationships
Sexual decision making and negotiation
Same-sex attraction
Safer sex, STIs and contraception
Sex and technology
Sex and the law
Consent and coercion

Working with parents
Studies show most parents support the provision of sex education in schools but they like to be informed about what the program will cover. We can provide schools with a letter to parents which outlines the content of our program.
