New SPHE syllabus to teach Junior Certs how to recognise domestic violence, minister says

Minister for Education Norma Foley said that it will cover “all areas of wellbeing, making healthy choices, relationships and sexuality, emotional wellbeing and understanding myself and others”. “For example, we are conscious that in the last number of months, we’ve had very clear and frank discussions on domestic and gender-based violence and the national strategy has been launched and [there is] absolute determination to pursue a zero-tolerance approach.

And all of it done in a safe environment, ensuring that our young people are being given the skills we need to tackle a reality that is a feature of life today and an access that they have via their mobile phones that wasn’t there 20 years ago. “I think students need to be given the information that will allow them to make the judgment that it is important how they share personal information and thoughts and opinions and emotions online and that they should do it in a safe and respectful manner.

Members of the public, especially students, parents, and education providers, are invited to submit feedback on the plans. “The first and key priority in a school is that students are welcomed, that they are included and that they feel safe in the school environment,” the minister said.

Sexual racism in schools by the state. I am sure certain religions north and south will object to this and ban their children from classes or remove them from schools. It's putting a minority before the greater good of children. Disgusting

That's good, I like that and the porn thing too
