all learners in Grades 1 to 12 receive a minimum of 20 hrs of age and context-appropriate, KSAV-based,
interactive HIV/AIDS life skills and sexuality education annually, through Life Orientation and the infusion of
HIV/AIDS life skills across other subjects and learning areas (ref National Integrated Plan for Children Infected and
Affected by HIV and AIDS, 2001; cf WHO/UNESCO minimum of 40 hrs per annum to bring about behaviour
change).

HIV/AIDS life skills education in the classroom.

Care and Support strategies for vulnerable children.

Management Plan - within the context of the nine focus areas of Whole School Evaluation (WSE) and the

• To develop information-sharing and motivation strategies that encourage pro-active participation in local
programme development and advocacy opportunities (such as Valentine’s Day, School AIDS Month, Condom
Week, SGB meetings, peer education and holiday programmes, parenting workshops, etc.) and the furthering of a
broad-based, multi-sectoral ‘enabling environment’ for effective prevention, care and support.
• To develop an effective, integrated, mainstreamed (and thus sustainable) intra- and inter-departmental HIV/AIDS
management system for the WCED – inclusive of an inter-directorate HIV/AIDS Management Unit and district
HIV/AIDS management units/teams, provincial and district-based master training pools, district-based psychosocial
support services, inter-sectoral collaboration and partnership management, the establishment of School HIV/AIDS
Co-ordinators and school clusters, quality assurance (through research, policy development, monitoring and
evaluation), and efficient programme administration and financial management.
