To analyze the implementation status and challenges of sex education in special education schools, so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating effective promotion strategies.
From November 2023 to January 2024, a census survey was conducted among 120 in-service teachers from 7 special education schools in Luzhou. The questionnaire covered the current status of sex education in schools, teachers' attitudes and knowledge toward sex education, and their coping methods for students' inappropriate sexual behaviors.
About 77.5% of teachers reported having provided sex education to students, but 93.2% indicated a lack of specialized sex education textbooks for special children, 90.4% reported no full-time teachers for sex education, and the methods of sex education were relatively limited (50.0% mainly based on lecture method). Nearly 95.8% of teachers held a positive attitude toward sex education, with 98.3% supporting its implementation. Only 26.7% of teachers demonstrated a good grasp of sex education knowledge, with the best-understood topic being "recognition and protection of private parts" (21.6%). When dealing with students' inappropriate sexual behaviors, the active response rate of teachers was 23.9%, with the highest active response rate observed for "intentionally hugging or kissing the opposite sex" (39.7%).
The special education schools in Luzhou lack comprehensive sex education curricula, teaching materials and full-time teachers, sufficient knowledge among teachers, and adequate proactive responses to students' inappropriate sexual behaviors. Greater emphasis should be placed on sex education for special children, including the training of dedicated teachers, to provide comprehensive and high-quality sex education services for special children.
