• W1534788485 abstract "Teenage pregnancy is an issue which was brought into focus in the United Kingdom(UK) in the last decade because of the high incidence of live births and abortions in thisage group. The negative impact associated with teenage pregnancy, including limitededucation options, and the impact on both the young person and their child in terms ofachieving economic wellbeing, has been well documented. Due to these rates, Britainhas been labelled as the country with the highest teenage pregnancy rate in Europe.The Local Authority within which this research was conducted has also been brandedas having the highest rate of teenage pregnancy in Europe.This research is an original study involving Year 9 pupils aged 13 to 14 from two singlesexsecondary schools in an inner London Borough. Under investigation are theirperceptions of what they are taught in sex and relationship education (SRE) bothinternally, by teachers and externally, by Sexual Health and Relationship Team(SHARES) facilitators. Further, the study aims to determine whether pupils' knowledgeof SRE increases after receiving input in Year 9 in their schools. A mixed-methodsapproach was used which included the use of a pre- and post-input questionnaire andthe running of two focus groups, one in each school. The teachers' and facilitators'views were obtained through the use of semi-structured interviews. The researchdiscussions are underpinned by ideas elaborated in three main theories: constructivism,communities of practice and social learning theory. The study also draws upon ideasfrom attachment theory. Critical psychology is referenced with regard to raising theissue of how society views young people. Past research in this area has focused on teenage pregnancy and its impact,adolescent attitudes to sexuality and sexual behaviour, and the evaluation of sex andrelationship programmes. The epistemological position taken is that of a critical realist,as the research draws on data collected both quantitively and qualitatively.This thesis endeavours to provide some insight into what is actually being undertaken inschools, including a review of ongoing Government initiatives attempting to reduceteenage pregnancy. Although teenage pregnancy is not the focus of this study, itrepresents on area of decision making related to pupils' perceptions of what they aretaught, which could have an effect on the decisions they make regarding sex andrelationships. It will give some insight into pupils' views on SRE and what they wouldlike to see included in the SRE curriculum, as well as who they think should teach it.The findings indicate that pupils' knowledge of SRE increased after input from both theteachers and the facilitators, and that they would like to be taught SRE in places otherthan school. This included youth centres and drop-in centres. Educational Psychologistshave a contribution to make in this area, both in terms of further research and in workingwith young people, their parents and communities to ensure that they are supported andthat their voices are heard." @default.
