Overview
- The lesson, reported widely this week, asked 13‑ to 15‑year‑old eighth‑graders to modernize a fictional bordello and to consider its services, access rules, staff roles, advertising and price lists.
- School leaders confirmed the assignment took place and said it was drawn from materials titled around sexual‑diversity pedagogy that were meant to provoke classroom discussion.
- After parents and parts of the school community raised concerns, the principal held immediate, constructive talks with the teacher, the class council and parents and later discussed the content with students.
- The school announced it will not repeat this method and is preparing alternative, age‑appropriate lessons on the diversity of relationships and sexuality, while regional education authorities had no public ruling by reporters' deadlines.
- Experts and unions note that sex education should be age‑appropriate and that while sexual topics appear earlier because of social media, treating sex work as a simulated design exercise for young teens is unusual and likely to reshape local guidance on classroom methods.
