The concept and problems of reproductive health is emerging as an essential need for health development. Focus group discussion was used to reveal the opinions of the parents, teachers, and students (mid and high schools) about educational needs in reproductive health. A series of 24 group discussions with participation of 162 persons (64 students, 50 teachers and 48 parents) was held. All the participants noted to a true need in education of puberty health in order to provide essentials for preadolescent students to adopt the psycho- and somatic changes of puberty.
However, a few fathers and a group of mothers believed that education of family planning is not suitable for students. A need for education of AIDS and marital problems for students were the major concerns in all groups. The female students emphasized a need for programming counseling in pre-marital period. In conclusion, essentials in puberty health, family planning, AIDS and marital problems should be provided in mid- and high schools in order to narrow the knowledge gap of the students.
