Two hundred thirteen teachers of one secondary and four primary schools of East Delhi were interviewed to assess their knowledge and attitudes about AIDS and their opinions regarding school based AIDS education. Observations revealed that majority of the teachers were aware of various aspects of HIV/AIDS. However, they also had some misconceptions regarding transmission of the disease. Though, most of the teachers opined that they could play an important role in educating the students as well as the community regarding AIDS/STDs, three fourths of them had never discussed AIDS/STDs with their students. Majority of teachers were in favour of starting class room based education on AIDS/STDs, beginning from secondary classes onwards, and more than half opined that class teacher could educate the students better than the doctors or parents. The results suggest that after being properly trained, teachers can be effectively utilized for educating the students.
对东德里一所中学和四所小学的213名教师进行了访谈，以评估他们对艾滋病的知识和态度以及他们对学校艾滋病教育的看法。观察结果显示，大多数教师了解艾滋病毒/艾滋病的各个方面。然而，他们对该疾病的传播也存在一些误解。虽然大多数教师认为他们可以在教育学生以及社区了解艾滋病/性传播疾病方面发挥重要作用，但其中四分之三的教师从未与学生讨论过艾滋病/性传播疾病。大多数教师赞成从中学开始开展基于课堂的艾滋病/性传播疾病教育，超过一半的教师认为班主任比医生或家长更能有效地教育学生。结果表明，经过适当培训后，教师可以有效地用于教育学生。
