Asmal Promises Quick Action on Sex Education for South AfricaAugust 22, 2001 The South African government will act swiftly to incorporate the outcome of a conference on sexuality education into its policies, Education Minister Kader Asmal said on Tuesday. Asmal said his department would consider the conference's recommendations and then draw up a national plan of action. The process will also include "the formulation of guidelines with regard to what has to be taught in the schools in terms of sexuality education, when it will be taught, how it will be taught and by whom it will be taught." The department will ensure that due attention is paid to life skills and HIV/AIDS education in all schools from grade R (reception grade) to grade 12, he said.
