As a student reaches the end of Grade 12, he or she should be able to discuss and identify resources related to a number of health-related issues. For example, understanding the importance of prenatal care and resources related to pregnancy and childbirth is a critical skill at this stage, as is recognizing substance abuse and resources related to addiction. At this point in his or her development, the typical student can discuss healthy and unhealthy behaviors in relationships, dating violence, and abuse. He or she can discuss healthy and unhealthy behaviors in regard to eating and can also discuss the impact of communicable and non-communicable diseases. Articulating these issues will contribute to the Grade 12 student’s ability to demonstrate procedures and identify resources that contribute to his or her own overall health and safety and that of others.
