Did your school teach sex-education?

My school did for only 1 day and it just confused everyone and they literally told us to ask our parents. But my step-dad is uncomfortable talking about it and my mom wouldn’t talk about it either. What did you do? I just used any resource I could find and asked my friends tbh

UK here and yes we had sex education at the age of 11. (1976)

Started as a way to prepare us for the changes in puberty in the last year of junior school (10-11)
and carried on in biology lessons in 1st year (year 7) at secondary school.

Much discussion as to whether or not they should at the time. And one or two youngsters were withdrawn from those lessons either because parents didn't want the school to tell them for whatever reason, or because they didn't think their children should know at that time.
