Overview

Young people tend to find themselves learning about sexuality and gender in their social settings. What implications does this have for their teachers and for the development of policy and practice in personal, social and health education? This book takes a fresh look at the issues and points to why these issues continue to be matters of abiding concern. As contemporary debates suggest that schools are still looking for solutions to social problems resulting from a lack of clarity over the issues, Mary Jane Kehily here documents four years of research based on interviews with pupils and in-service teachers alike. This provides innovative analysis of the links between gender and sexuality and their engagement with school processes, popular culture and the world of work and leisure. The central argument of Sexuality and Schooling offers educationalists new ways of understanding the significance of sexuality and gender in young people's lives and suggests ways in which this knowledge is useful in practice for all those who work with young people.
