Relationships and Sex Education (RSE) in schools are predominantly heterocentric. Consequently, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning young people have reported feeling excluded. This exclusion results in feelings of being "different" and "other," which in turn leads to further disengagement in the sex education classroom, contributing to poor sexual health literacy, greater risk of abusive relationships, and higher rates of sexually transmitted infections. A rapid review was undertaken to identify the impact of non-inclusive sex education. The review makes recommendations for policy and practice, which includes the provision of training courses to school teaching staff with an emphasis on inclusive RSE, appropriate online resources for lesbian, gay, bisexual transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) young people, as well as offering 1:1 emotional health support for LGBTQ young people as they begin to question their sexual orientation.
学校中的关系和性教育(RSE)主要是以异性恋为中心的。因此,女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、跨性别和疑惑的年轻人报告说感到被排斥。这种排斥导致他们感到“与众不同”和“异类”,进而导致他们进一步脱离性教育课堂,导致性健康知识水平较差、虐待关系风险增加和性传播感染率上升。本研究进行了快速审查,以确定非包容性性教育的影响。该审查为政策和实践提出了建议,包括为学校教职员工提供关于包容性 RSE 的培训课程、为女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、跨性别和疑惑(LGBTQ)年轻人提供适当的在线资源,以及为开始质疑自己性取向的 LGBTQ 年轻人提供一对一的情感健康支持。
