In this episode, Dr Justin Coulson sits down with teacher representative Ed Schuller to discuss claims about explicit sexual education materials being used in Australian schools. They unpack where the resources come from, why many parents never see them, and the questions every family should be asking. Whatever your views, this conversation is about one thing. Helping parents understand what their children are being taught and encouraging them to be active partners in their child's education. KEY POINTS Why many parents don't know what is included in some sex education programs. The role of third party organisations in delivering lessons. The difference between teaching puberty, consent, and more explicit content. Practical questions parents can ask their child's school. How to stay informed without creating conflict with teachers or principals. Why parent involvement matters when sensitive topics are taught. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE \"You cannot be passive. You need to know exactly what your child is being taught.\" RESOURCES MENTIONED Teacher's Professional Association of Queensland (TPAQ) Teachers Professional Association of Australia (TPAA) Sexual and Reproductive Health Australia (SRHA) Happy Families Respectful Relationships education ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Ask your school who delivers sex education lessons.
