Last checked 14/09/2026 · This is information only, not advice or a recommendation.

  • National framework: Health, family and HIV-prevention content is integrated into parts of the curriculum, but no comprehensive rights-based national programme was verified.
  • Interpretation: The status summarizes the verified policy framework; it does not guarantee uniform classroom delivery.
