Eighty-three secondary school teachers and headmasters from Masvingo Province in Zimbabwe responded to a questionnaire eliciting their opinions toward implementation of AIDS prevention education programmes in the school setting. Results show that although 79 teachers (95.2 pc) supported implementing AIDS prevention programmes in the school setting, teachers were divided as to what should be taught (content) and when it should be taught (timing). Specific content areas such as the use of condoms was found to be controversial and supported only by 53 teachers (63.9 pc). Further, the 53 teachers could not agree as to what educational level this should be taught. These findings suggest that teachers alone cannot determine the "what" or "when" of an AIDS prevention programme in the school setting. Formation of a health council comprising of community members, school and health officials within each school district is proposed in order to receive community input.
来自津巴布韦马斯温戈省的83名中学教师和校长对一份调查问卷做出了回应,该问卷旨在征求他们对在学校开展艾滋病预防教育项目的意见。结果显示,尽管79名教师(95.2%)支持在学校开展艾滋病预防项目,但在应该教什么(内容)以及何时教(时机)的问题上,教师们存在分歧。诸如使用避孕套等具体内容领域存在争议,只有53名教师(63.9%)支持。此外,这53名教师对于应该在什么教育水平教授这一内容也无法达成一致。这些发现表明,仅靠教师无法确定学校艾滋病预防项目的“教什么”或“何时教”。建议在每个学区成立一个由社区成员、学校和卫生官员组成的健康委员会,以便听取社区的意见。
