Abstract

Linn Moor School provides care and education for 22 children with severe and challenging behaviour. Around 80 percent of these children have a diagnosis on the Autistic Spectrum and all the students have some form of learning disabilities. Due to these difficulties, providing sexual health education has been a challenge and there has never been a whole school approach. Aspects of sexual health education have only been taught when a crisis has arisen for individual students.
