Muslims and Catholics have been enraged by explicit sex-education lessons in Western Australia schools, where girls as young as 14 are being made to roll condoms on to plastic penises.

Prominent WA Muslim imam Abdul Jalil Ahmad branded the lessons “pornography in the classroom”.

Peter Rosengren, the Editor of the Catholic Church’s The Record newspaper, said that such a way of imparting sex education to school students was indicative of society’s over-sexualisation of children.
