dc.description.abstract The paper intended to investigate the incorporation of gender and sexuality in extra-curricular education among primary schools in Bugiri Municipality with focus on highlighting the significance of sexuality education outside of the classroom, to determine how much gender is considered in extracurricular sexual activities as well as identifying obstacles to gender inclusion in extra-curricular sexuality education. The study was qualitative in nature. Findings indicate that sex education helps reduce teen pregnancy, which can hinder possibilities for school and other aspects of life. It has been shown to be more successful in preventing STDs than education that only stresses abstinence until marriage. Sexually active teens are more likely to postpone their first encounter and take contraception overall. Too many young people get muddled and inconsistent information about relationships and sex. In addition, Sexuality education aims to raise awareness of gender-based violence and advance respect-based human rights for all. Such a position is hypothesized using inclusive and post-structuralist conceptions of gender and sexuality. The fact that these subjects have been handled successfully does not exclude linking them to utterances that can portray them as a potential threat. Further, many schools have created CSE curriculum, but difficulties with program design and roll-out prevent their complete implementation. Issues include ineffective methods for monitoring and evaluating teachers and pupils on CSE. Changes in educational administration (such as a change in the minister) affect implementation strategies. Conclusively, the process of teaching and learning about the cognitive, emotional, physical, and social elements of sexuality is known as comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) it strives to provide knowledge that will enable kids and teenagers to achieve their health, happiness, and dignity. CSE aims to spread awareness of gender violence and to advance respect-based human rights for all.
