A major obstacle to the development of a school family life and sex education (FL/SE) programme is a presumed lack of parental and community endorsement of this instructional area. The study investigated the views of 1,100 parents concerning the amount of instructional emphasis that should be given to FL/SE at four school grades. Two major findings were (1) parental support ranged from 48% to 60% indicating that FL/SE should receive major teaching emphasis; (2) not more than 12% at any one grade indicated that FL/SE should receive no instructional emphasis. These findings appear to concur with those of similar surveys in the U.S. The author concludes that schools should determine the degree of parental support before moving ahead in this area, and proposes that they undertake research similar to the survey he carried out.
学校家庭生活与性教育(FL/SE)项目发展的一个主要障碍是,人们认为家长和社区对这一教学领域缺乏支持。该研究调查了1100名家长对于四个年级的学校应给予FL/SE教学重点程度的看法。两项主要研究结果为:(1)家长支持率在48%至60%之间,这表明FL/SE应得到主要教学重点;(2)在任何一个年级,不超过12%的家长表示FL/SE不应得到任何教学重点。这些研究结果似乎与美国类似调查的结果一致。作者得出结论,学校在推进这一领域工作之前应确定家长的支持程度,并建议他们开展与作者所进行的调查类似的研究。
