"Is it Soc Ed Day Thursday, Miss?"

"Yes".

"What we doing?"

"Sex".

"Oh, shit".

Thirty twelve/thirteen year olds. Five hours of sex education. Spare me a thought.

At least the children of the UK are learning how babies are made and diseases are contracted. Can't say the same about the kids in the US. Everything they learn, they learn on t.v. and the internet.

Just slap on Pretty Woman - thats how i learnt - although ITV used to cut the film to shreads. Or of course you could use a really bad analogy like 'Men have a garage at the back of the house...' and 'some people put 2 cars in the garage, and one up the driveway'.

I'm not helping am i?

I've broken from the ranks of uptight, embarrassed teachers and death by worksheet (we get no training for this kind of thing) and am planning a very different day for my lot. We kick off with a competition starter - which group can list the most words for penis and vagina.

Repeat to yourself: this is going to be fun...

We have the cutest name for vagina in Italian: passerina (literally "little sparrow"... nothing to do with Edith Piaf, though).
