All of that IS covered.It's taught in PHSE lessons to every year between year 7 and 11.Contraception is covered.The consequences(pregnancy,STDs) are covered,drinking ,drugs and binging are covered,grooming is covered.The majority of teachers are bending over backwards to try educating and protecting the children they teach.
However what can you do when girls aren't parented by their own parents?When curfews aren't kept,when teenagers are left to wander the streets?
