摘要

几十年来,世界范围内,月经开始的年龄(即初潮)一直在下降。大约12%的澳大利亚女孩在8到11岁之间月经初潮。澳大利亚课程评估和报告局目前的健康和体育学科指导方针指出,应该向五年级至六年级(10-12岁)的学生介绍青春期教育,因为许多学生已经进入青春期。为了探索澳大利亚小学目前如何支持初潮早期的女孩,我们对来自不同学校的15名小学工作人员进行了半结构化的电话采访,包括教师、校长、一名学校服务官员和一名学校辅导员。主题分析确定了三个主要主题,(1)早期初潮和儿童认知能力的缺陷模型的流行;(2)月经知识的性别把关;(3)月经教育的系统性障碍和不一致性。我们的分析补充并扩展了最近呼吁改善澳大利亚学校月经教育的呼声。小学需要积极的月经支持措施和设施,以使学生不分年龄、性别、阶级或文化,都能正常地讨论月经初潮和月经。

Staff perceptions of support for early menarche in Australian primary schools: a qualitative study
The age of the onset of menstruation, termed menarche, has been declining for decades worldwide. Approximately 12% of Australian girls reach menarche between eight to 11 years of age. Current health and physical education subject guidelines from the Australian Curriculum Assessment and Reporting Authority state that puberty education should be introduced to students between year levels five to six (ages 10–12) when many have already begun puberty. To explore how girls experiencing early menarche are currently supported in Australian primary schools, semi-structured telephone interviews were conducted with 15 primary school staff from separate schools, including teachers, principals, a school services officer, and a school counsellor. Thematic analysis identified three main themes, (1) the prevalence of deficit models of early menarche and children’s capacity to know; (2) gendered gatekeeping of menstruation knowledge; and (3) systemic barriers and inconsistencies in menstruation education. Our analysis complements but extends recent calls for improvements to menstruation education in Australian schools. Affirmative menstrual support practices and facilities are needed in primary schools to normalise and encourage conversations with students about menarche and menstruation irrespective of age, gender, class or culture.
