Gay Sex Ed Lessons to Begin in Scottish Schools

Scottish schools will be expanding their sex education guidelines to include health lessons on same-sex sexual relationships.

The plan has the support of the Scottish Parent Teacher Council.

“If we don’t give young people the right information, they will just get the wrong information,” said spokesperson Eleanor Coner. ” They will go to the internet or to their friends. It is far better that they are given the proper information than none at all.”

But the Catholic Church has condemned the move. In a statement the church in Scotland said the plan was “appalling, outrageous and utterly unnecessary”.

The Scottish government is hoping these new lessons will begin in August.
