DFEE SEX AND RELATIONSHIPS GUIDANCE

Motion Text

That this House believes that the new sex and relationships education guidance from the DFEE will play a crucial role in achieving the Government's target of halving the conception rates of under 18 year olds by 2010; notes that, to this end, the guidance needs to give unambiguous advice to schools so that they are able to meet the needs of all children in developing effective relationship skills; and further notes that to do this, the guidance must recognise the diversity of family structures whilst acknowledging the importance of marriage and other committed relationships.
