[Report of experiences with AIDS education in schools by the public health service].

AIDS information work is very work-intensive if it is to be pursued with consequence and effect. This is a report on the work done in the course of one year at 47 schools and on the experience collected: --Many evening events have to be visited (parents' evenings and get-togethers, meetings of the parent councils). Such events are absolutely imperative if work at the schools should be meaningful and effective. --Working in Small groups (class groups) is much more time-intensive but also clearly more effective and should therefore always be preferred to large-scale events. --Working at different types of schools with different age levels makes great demands on the flexibility and intuitive abilities of the AIDS expert.
