Education Minister McHugh has strongly hit out at a “fake news” campaign which suggested four-year-olds would be taught about masturbation as part of a new sex education curriculum. And ultimately, it was fake news for highlighting those scaremongering aspects of something that wasn't realized,” he said. The minister said his approach is about breaking down the uncomfortableness in dealing with this subject. So we need to have a support system that helps us study language that helps us through these conversations. The ethos will will be protected.Every school ethos, you know, has a different approach to this.
