Abstract [sv]

I den svenska skolan ska sex och samlevnadsundervisningen ge ungdomar kunskap om kropp, sexualitet, jämställdhet och relationer, där rektorn för varje skola ansvarar för undervisningen. Barnmorskor på ungdomsmottagningar runt om i landet har under årens lopp samlat på sig gedigen kunskap om ungdomars villkor och åkommor som är specifika för åldersgruppen. Syftet med studien var att beskriva rektorers erfarenheter av skolans sex och samlevnadsundervisning och samarbete med ungdomsmottagningen. Studien hade en deskriptiv design. Ett bekvämlighetsurval tillämpades som urvalsmetod. Sju rektorer från skolor i Mellansverige deltog i studien. Data samlades in via semistrukturerade intervjuer och analyserades utifrån kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultatet presenterades utifrån sex kategorier och 18 underkategorier. Resultatet visade att rektorerna hade erfarenhet av att lärarna var en viktig faktor för att sex och samlevnadsundervisningen skulle bli bra. Rektorerna hade erfarenhet om att ungdomars livsstil och attityd spelade en stor roll för hur de omvandlade sina teoretiska kunskaper i sex och samlevnad till praktik. Rektorerna hade goda erfarenheter av att samarbeta med ungdomsmottagningen. Rektorerna belyste socio-demografiska utmaningar vid sex och samlevnadsundervisningen. Rektorerna hade erfarenhet av att det fanns bristande kunskaper hos eleverna i ämnet. Rektorerna ansåg att det var viktigt att det fanns en balans mellan biologi och värdegrundsfrågor i sex och samlevnadsundervisningen. Rektorerna upplevde tvivel om undervisningens utformning. Författarens slutsats efter att ha intervjuat sju rektorer är att skolorna i Sverige behöver mycket tydligare riktlinjer för hur sex och samlevnadsundervisning ska bedrivas så att balans mellan biologi och värdegrund kan skapas.
