Phikwe councillors support sex education

At a presentation by the Head of Curriculum Division in the Ministry of Education, Molaodi Menyatso, councillors said sex education is necessary towards exposing learners to accurate information on relationships and decision making.

Councillor Kosy Mashaba said sex education is necessary as students will automatically pass through a stage of sexuality that has challenges such as pregnancy and HIV/AIDS. He added that due to the economic hardships, some students engage in anti-social activities that eventually lands them into unpleasantries such as pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases.
