Abstract(s)
A sexualidade na adolescência é uma temática pertinente, atual e alvo de vários estudos, sendo
uma das prioridades nas políticas de saúde mundial. Na adolescência os jovens apresentam
maior risco de comportamentos sexuais desajustados, comprometedores da sua saúde. A escola
é reconhecida como o local privilegiado para a promoção da saúde com recurso à educação
sexual.
Delineamos como objetivos descrever os conhecimentos e atitudes dos adolescentes face à se xualidade; identificar as variáveis sociodemográficas e contextuais e analisar a sua influência
nos conhecimentos e atitudes dos adolescentes face à sexualidade. Foi desenhado um estudo
transversal, descritivo e analítico, envolvendo uma amostra de 69 alunos a frequentarem o 10º
e 11º ano da Escola Profissional de Carvalhais, maioritariamente masculina (56,52%) com
idade média de 17,46 anos. Aplicou-se, em contexto de pandemia COVID-19, o questionário
do Projeto “YOUR PEL” autopreenchido na sala de aula.
Os resultados indicam que 59,4% dos adolescentes não são sexualmente ativos, o sexo femi nino, do grupo etário ≤ 17 anos, a frequentar o 11º ano são detentores de maiores conhecimen tos. Adolescentes com mais conhecimentos ainda não iniciaram a vida sexual. Verificaram-se
lacunas nos conhecimentos sobre a violência na sexualidade, a utilização da contraceção de
emergência e modo de transmissão das IST. Na utilização do preservativo, fisiologia da gravi dez e modos de transmissão do HIV os conhecimentos são satisfatórios.
Os enfermeiros devem realizar atividades promotoras da saúde sexual na escola, pois a educa ção para a saúde sexual é um eixo estratégico na capacitação do adolescente com conhecimen tos promotores de uma sexualidade saudável.

Abstract Adolescent sexuality is a relevant topic, current and the subject of several studies, being one of the priorities in global health policies. In adolescence, young people are at greater risk of mal adaptive sexual behavior, which compromises their health. The school is recognized as the privileged place for health promotion using sex education. We outlined as objectives to describe the knowledge and attitudes of adolescent's about sexu ality; identify sociodemographic and contextual variables and analyze their influence on ado lescent's knowledge and attitudes about sexuality. A cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study was designed, involving a sample of 69 students attending the 10th and 11th year of Professional School of Carvalhais, mostly male (56,52%) with an average age of 17,46 years. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the self-completed questionnaire of the “YOUR PEL” Project was self-applied in the classroom. The results indicate that 59,4% of adolescents are not sexually active, females, aged ≤ 17 years, attending the 11th grade are detainers of more knowledge. Adolescents with more knowledge have not yet started their sexual life. There were gaps in knowledge about violence in sexuality, the use of emergency contraception and the mode of transmission of STIs. In the use of con doms, physiology of pregnancy and modes of HIV transmission, knowledge is satisfactory. Nurses must carry out activities that promote sexual health at school, because sexual health education is a strategic axis in the adolescent’s empowerment with knowledge that promotes healthy sexuality. Key words: Adolescence; knowledge; Sexuality; Sex Education; School Health; Nursing.
