- W2613885364 abstract "Sexual and reproductive health (SRH) education is a key component in a multifaceted approach to address the sexual and reproductive health needs of adolescents. In senior high schools SRH education topics are integrated into two core and two elective subjects but those in the core subjects are limited in scope and the overall approach emphasizes abstinence. Three-fourths of students were exposed to at least one topic in five key categories related to SRH education; only 8% of students reported learning about all of the topics that constitute a comprehensive curriculum according to international guidelines. Nearly all students had learned about abstinence HIV reproductive physiology and SRH rights in their classes; fewer than half had learned about contraceptive methods and practical skills such as communicating in relationships where to access HIV or STI services how to use contraceptives or where to get them. Teachers reported challenges to teaching SRH topics effectively including lack of time lack of appropriate skills and inadequate teaching materials. Overall schools in Ghana are implementing an advanced program compared with programs in other countries in the region. Yet broadening the range of topics to reflect international guidelines and promoting practical skills related to contraceptive use would improve the comprehensiveness and impact of the program and better integrating topics into core subjects would standardize the information that all students receive. Improving and systematizing teacher training and diversifying teaching approaches to encourage active student participation and promote practical skills confidence and agency are essential if SRH education is to be delivered accurately and effectively. Further steps should be taken to demystify and desensationalize sexuality among adolescents and continued sensitization of the community teachers and school heads is needed to ensure that adolescents are supported in learning SRH-related skills." @default.
