Sexuality Health Education

The ministère de lÉducation et de lEnseignement supérieur has officially implemented the Sexuality Health Education into the school systems. All schools at Riverside School Board will be teaching the content in the 2019-2020 school-year.

The learning content defined by the Ministère is tailored to the students ages and levels of development, and is in line with recommendations of experts from the World Health Organization and UNESCO. School personnel in collaboration with parents and community organizations (e.g. health network, community organizations) will teach the content.

The school and the family play complementary roles in Sexuality Health Education. The complementary nature of these roles reinforces and optimizes the efforts of both. Rest assured that our school teams are deeply committed to the healthy development of your child.
