The teacher who used to teach it during PSHE lessons retired, and from what I understand (having complained to the Senior Leadership Team at my school), none of the other teachers at my school felt comfortable teaching it to younger students.
I will never forget, in Year 10, a girl approaching my Biology teacher and saying, "Miss, you know crabs... Do you get them by having sex on a beach?" She was deadly serious.
There are now a number of people in my year group who have had sex, but I guess they had to do their own research prior to the event!
Well, judging from your experience of sex-education at school, I suppose that adds a little bit of real-life credibility to that age-old joke: 'What does a Sunderland lass use for protection? - a bus shelter'.
