Abstract
This study was carried out to investigate the impact of integrated teaching of sex education amongst secondary schools students in Kaduna State. The study raised four objectives as well as four research questions and four null-hypotheses. A survey method was employed by the study with a population of 20,385 students and a sample of 2,035 drawn from the population using multi-stage random sampling technique. The main method of data collection was through the use of a self designed questionnaire which was structured with 25 items. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient was used to test the four null-hypotheses formulated. The major findings from the study among others showed that the integrated teaching of sex education was very popular amongst secondary school students in Kaduna and the rate of unwanted pregnancies, change in the immoral behaviour and school dropout level had drastically reduced in Kaduna. Based on the major findings the study therefore recommended that parents should be actively involved in discussing sex related matters with their children and the teaching of sex education should be made compulsory to all students at secondary school level
