It’s Wednesday afternoon and Year Four is peacefully labelling a diagram of the human body, when young Johnny puts his hand in the air, “Please miss, what’s a vibrator?” For the unprepared teacher it’s time to tell Johnny to get on with his drawing, and pray silently for the bell. Of all the subjects that schools have to tackle, sex education is probably the most delicate and controversial; it certainly makes the most sensational headlines, especially when the under-12s are involved. Last year, we heard that children as young as 12 at a school in Scotland were getting free condoms from the school medical centre; the Family Planning Association had published a workbook for primary schools that included information about masturbation and oral sex; the Health Education Authority had to pulp 12,000 copies of its Pocket Guide to Sex for teenagers because it was deemed “distasteful and smutty”, and a nurse at a Leeds primary school had answered questions about oral sex and “Mars Bar parties”.
The nurse was later vindicated by a local authority report but not before John Patten, then Secretary of State for Education, had expressed his outrage and disgust: “I am incensed to think that very young children could be exposed … to things which at a particular age they should not even be beginning to understand, let alone understand.”Mr Patten probably felt he was speaking on behalf of most British parents – but was he? Do parents really believe their young ones can or should be kept in blissful ignorance until their teens or are they more realistic? And if primary schools are to play a part, what should they be teaching – when and how?While secondary schools are legally bound to provide sex education, in the primary sector it remains in the hands of school governors.
If they choose to provide sex education over and above what appears in the compulsory science curriculum, then the school must have a policy stating when, where and how it will be taught. At present, exactly who is doing what is unclear.Gill Lenderyou, who wrote the primary school workbook for the Family Planning Association, is currently running workshops on sex education around the country. “In the past couple of months, my workshops have been deluged by primary school teachers,” she said. “Many schools still don’t have policies, are just doing it in science or answering questions as and when they arise – which is simply not good enough.”You have to be proactive, create a climate where children can ask questions, because they quickly learn not to. Primary school is the best time to start, when they are curious and parents are much more likely to be involved.
If you stick to science, there’s no hope of getting in anything about relationships, values, feelings, which I would have thought is what parents want, rather than just the plumbing.”Ironically, while many schools are ignoring sex education altogether or producing vague policies to avoid provoking parental objections, most parents would actually like them to do something. A report published last year by the HEA showed that 94 per cent of parents were in favour of schools educating their children about human sexuality and most felt it should begin around the age of eight. Given that one in 10 girls starts her periods at primary school (some as young as eight), leaving all mention of puberty and menstruation until secondary school is plainly absurd.If schools need any more encouragement to grasp the nettle, they need only listen to their pupils’ playground-talk, Dilys Went, vice-chair of the Brook Advisory Centre, believes young children know an awful lot more than adults realise. “Children start seeing things on television from a very early age.
If adults won’t discuss it, they will invent their own stories and may behave in inappropriate ways. I’ve seen nursery children touch each other up and act out what they’ve seen.”Eight-year-olds can pick up condoms and bring them to school and words like Aids are used in games. Unless children are taught about it compassionately within a framework, they remain confused and embarrassed, and assume what they see on television is the norm.”For teachers who wish to discover how much their pupils know, Ms Went recommends an anonymous drawing and writing exercise. Allison Ward, who teaches at Alderman’s Green school in Coventry, recently asked her six and seven-year-olds to draw or write what they knew about where babies came from, and was amazed by the results.”I got far more information than I expected,” she says. “There was a range of knowledge (always a problem for teachers) and some confusion. One child wrote: `The female produces an egg and if a seed meets an egg in a special tube that’s what makes a baby’.

Terrorist group furious at Sacha Baron Cohen for unwanted role in “Bruno.”
By June this year Vodafone had grabbed 32 per cent of the digital mobile market with 26 per cent for Orange and Cellnet trailing on 22 per cent. Analysts have pointed to risks for both Cellnet and Mercury One- 2-One, which has 20 per cent of the digital market, if they fall behind the two front-runners in the digital revolution.A spokesman for Cellnet was unavailable for comment yesterday.. The Government has said all analogue phone customers should move to digital by 2005. It’s patently untrue to say it is bad for service providers’ business. In fact, it’s quite the reverse, because customers could switch networks without changing their service provider.”The letter, from Richard Davis, Cellnet’s head of channel sales, encloses a copy of the company’s response to the Oftel consultation paper. In the document Cellnet argues customers are not interested in keeping their mobile number when changing network: “Customers in general do not perceive their mobile numbers to be of particular value.” It concludes: “The benefits of mobile portability would not outweigh the cost of implementation.”Cellnet has 41 per cent of the total mobile phone market but has slipped behind Vodafone and Orange in the fast expanding digital business. Paul Franklin, Orange’s director of regulatory affairs, said: “Cellnet is using whatever tactics it can to delay number portability.
service providers introducing number portability will need to introduce new business processes as well as modifying billing and administration systems to enable a customer to move networks while taking their number with them.”It concludes with criticism of Oftel: “Given the impact on [service providers'] business the introduction of number portability will have, we believe Oftel should have asked service providers for their views.”Yesterday Orange attacked the claims made in the letter. The regulator hopes to finalise plans and give a specific time-scale by the end of this year. Supporters of the concept see the lack of number portability as a crucial obstacle to the development of competition.Cellnet’s letter, dated 18 June, says number portability is “being pushed by Orange”. It suggests it will be bad for service providers’ businesses. It continues: “Oftel does not appear to have requested comments from service providers, even though the implications of number portability will have consequences for both your customers and your systems … The extent of the lobbying effort was revealed in a letter Cellnet has sent to service providers, the retailers which buy wholesale air time from mobile networks and sell it to the public. Orange, the digital mobile company, is preparing a formal complaint to the industry regulator, Oftel, about what it claims are Cellnet’s deliberate delaying tactics.
The introduction of number portability for fixed phone lines is already under way and Oftel is consulting with the industry on how to bring in mobile number portability.
Today’s edition of Roof, Shelter’s housing magazine, predicts that the housing market is poised for a boom that could need to be dampened, although probably not before the election.”Whoever wins the election may well face a housing market working its old inflationary magic,” it says.Mr Barty agrees: “If the market continues to recover with the same momentum the Government will have to act at some time next year.” Figures from both Halifax and Nationwide building societies last week confirmed that house prices are climbing at an average annualised rate of 5-10 per cent.. Cellnet, the mobile telephone network jointly owned by BT and Securicor, has launched a behind-the-scenes campaign to try to prevent the introduction of mobile number portability, where customers can change networks but keep their existing number. It confirms that the biggest and fastest reaction occurs in construction and sectors linked to the housing market.The research found that a fall of just over 1 percentage point in interest rates would lead to a rise in manufacturing output of nearly 2 per cent after just over two years, with a bigger reaction in construction and related industries.There is clear evidence that these parts of the economy are responding to the four reductions in interest rates since December. “Sustaining low inflation will require cautious policies,” he says.Marian Bell at the Royal Bank of Scotland said yesterday: “There is no reason for the Bank of England to have changed its view since May.” Although the short-term prospects for inflation are very favourable, the upturn in manufacturing, strong retail sales and sterling’s decline from its level two months ago would all concern the Bank’s economists, she said.An article to be published in the Bank’s Quarterly Bulletin on Wednesday assesses how quickly changes in interest rates affect different sectors of the economy.
“The Chancellor believes this is compatible with sustained low inflation – we do not,” writes economist James Barty.Barclays Bank’s chief economist, Alan Davies, predicts that base rates will have to climb from their current 5.75 per cent level to 7.5 per cent next year. We could be seeing fireworks by January.”His new report compares the state of the economy with the same point in the Maudling, Barber and Lawson booms. Although the economy has had less stimulus from interest rate cuts in the 1990s, the Government’s fiscal policy has been much looser. A clutch of new forecasts published today predict that the economy is picking up fast enough to put upward pressure on inflation and interest rates.According to David Mackie, UK economist at the investment bank JP Morgan, “We are in for the sort of mini-boom which is likely to make the Governor very, very nervous about the inflation target.
