Summary: Sex Education In Schools (Press, 17 July 1985)
In a letter published on 17 July 1985, S. Berry expressed strong outrage regarding the potential implications of the Education Amendment Bill being processed in Parliament. Berry articulated concerns that if the bill passes, parents would lose significant control over the nature and timing of information provided to their children in primary schools. They noted that many parents remain unaware of the type of information their children could be exposed to under the new rule. Berry suggested that if samples of this information were distributed to households, it would likely cause shock and concern among parents. Furthermore, the letter indicated that the ongoing debate surrounding the Homosexual Law Reform Bill has overshadowed the discussions about the Education Amendment, suggesting that this issue also deserves public attention and parental awareness.
