In light of the new school curriculum, Lgr22. The Swedish school wants to include sexuality, consent and relationships in religious education in order to create an understanding of other cultures and religions among the students. This qualitative study has examined how lower secondary school teachers relate to the new curriculum as well as how they have included these issues in religious education. The study is based on seven interviews with lower secondary school teachers of religious education. Through the semi-structured interviews, a material was collected to later generate a result for the study. The result of the study showed that the teachers considered it a positive change and a natural issue to teach about in religious education. However there were two different teaching methods shown in the study that prioritized different content in the education. One where basic facts were central and another where understanding dominated the teaching. More detailed research is needed on the consistency of teaching these issues across Sweden.
