Schoolgirls as young as 13 are being given contraceptive injections and implants during lunch-breaks without their parents? knowledge.
School nurses have given implants or jabs to girls aged between 13 and 16 more than 900 times in the past two years, a survey by The Daily Telegraph has found. Girls aged 13 have been given contraceptive jabs and implants on more than 20 occasions.
A further 7,400 girls aged 15 and under have been given contraceptive injections or implants at family planning clinics.
Under the patient confidentiality rules, nurses are banned from seeking the permission of parents beforehand, or even informing them afterwards, without the pupil?s permission.
Anthony Seldon, the master of Wellington College, said: ?I think that sexual intercourse is the very highest and most mature spiritual relationship that can exist between two human beings.
