The department of basic education announced a pilot of the comprehensive sexuality education programme, which is expected to be trialled this year at selected schools that have recorded high rates of HIV infection and sexual abuse.“We thought government is for the people by the people; we didn't know democracy meant these things must be imposed on us. [KZN premier Sihle Zikalala] must be corrected,” he said.
The king also took on his critics, saying that he was not against empowering children through sexual education but did not approve of this approach. “We can't put our heads in the sand — we know children must be empowered with information for their safety, but this programme will not have good results.”
Zwelithini said he had created a platform that would enable all stakeholders in the matter to contribute to the content of the curriculum. “I have started consulting education experts on this. We want a consultative way that is open even for parents to be able to have a say.” He called on parents, religious leaders and teachers to consider his proposal, which he plans to take to President Cyril Ramaphosa, on how the subject can best be tackled.
Salute King, take Motshekga head on my Chief. During matric results announcement she said parents who dont want their kids to be taught what are buttocks, should remain with their kids outside classroom during sex education lessons. She deliberately chose buttocks,why not others?
What is disgusting is a man running around in skins, in 2020. Tribal crap.
