Teachers' attitudes towards sexuality education are among the important
predictors of their willingness to teach sexuality education programmes in
schools. While there is a plethora of studies on teachers' attitudes towards
sexuality in developed countries, there is a paucity of such studies in
sub-Saharan Africa in general and Tanzania in particular. This study examined
teachers' attitudes towards and comfort in teaching sexuality education in rural
and urban Tanzania. The results show that an overwhelming majority of teachers in
both rural and urban districts supported the teaching of sexuality education in
schools, and the inclusion of a wide range of sexuality education topics in the
curriculum. Nevertheless, though teachers expressed commitment to teaching
sexuality education in schools, they expressed difficult and discomfort in
teaching most of the key sexuality education topics. This implies that
declaration of positive attitudes towards teaching sexuality education alone is
not enough; there is a need for facilitating teachers with knowledge, skills and
confidence to teach various sexuality education topics.
