Comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) has emerged as an effective method of preventing teenage pregnancy. However, attempts to implement CSE policy in Nigeria since 2002 have not been successful. Teenage pregnancy is increasing in Oyo State, leading to rising school dropout rates. The aim of this study was to develop strategy to improve implementation of the CSE policy aimed at reducing teenage pregnancy at secondary schools in three LGAs in Oyo State, Nigeria. An explanatory sequential mixed methods design was employed to conduct data collection and analysis in Phase One. Target populations for survey were learners, parents and teachers.enSexuality educationTeenage pregnancySecondary schoolsNigeriaPublic healthDeveloping strategy to improve the implementation of comprehensive sexuality education policy in Oyo state secondary schools in NigeriaUniversity of the Western Cape
