The State Board of Education, Texas has taken the decision to revise the curriculum of sex education. The Board has approved the decision to teach about birth control to middle school students but has taken the decision not to provide information on sexual orientation, gender identity, and consent.



The redrafting consists of educating students of Class 07 and 08 about the efficacy of birth control to prevent STDs (Sexually Transmitted Diseases) and pregnancy. At present, only high scholars get such information through health programmes but these programmes are not mandatory to graduate.
