Most young people in Northern Ireland do not think politicians listen to them or take their views seriously, reports submitted by ChildLawCentre to a UN committee say
The report recommended introducing compulsory age-appropriate sex and relationship education in schools"Current RSE provision is inadequate," the NGO Stakeholder report said.
But the CLC report also highlighted wider failures in provision for children with special educational needs in the school system.It also raised concerns about how the pandemic and restrictions had affected children and young people.Those included: "Impacts on the physical and emotional health of children and young people, particularly those who are vulnerable; restricted opportunities for play and leisure; negative stereotyping of young people as the main group spreading the virus.
"Young people get categorised into stereotypes, they don't get listened to - you're just rowdy or want to fight," one young person told the report's authors.While a majority of young people who contributed to the reports felt that adults in their family listened to them, only around 15% of those surveyed "considered that they would be listened to by politicians if they gave their opinion".
