Closed petition: Remove parents’ right to withdraw secondary school students from sex education
Closed on
We urge the Government to remove the right of parents to withdraw their children from sex education lessons in all state and private secondary schools.
We believe sex education is important to give young people the tools to guard against sexual exploration and grooming, as well as to reduce the spread of STIs.
