12954 (2024). Hon Jan Tinetti to the Minister of Education: If “Schools make their own choices about who they bring in to deliver services”, why shouldn’t they also make their own choices about how and when they teach sex education?

Hon Erica Stanford: As I have stated publicly it is ultimately a decision for individual school boards, in consultation with their communities, how and when they teach relationship and sexuality education.
