Contraception and Consent Assessment

Read the information and method table first. Answer each question using the information provided and your own health knowledge. You do not need to share personal experiences. If a topic feels difficult, you can ask a trusted adult or health professional for support.

Key information

Consent must be freely given, informed, specific and ongoing. Anyone can change their mind or stop at any time. Silence, pressure, or not saying “no” is not consent. A person who is asleep or too affected by alcohol or other drugs to make a clear decision cannot give consent. In New Zealand, the general legal age of consent to sexual activity is 16; consent is still required at every age. Contraception can help prevent pregnancy, but most methods do not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). External and internal condoms can reduce the risk of many STIs when used correctly. A health professional can give confidential, individual advice about contraception and sexual health.

Part A: Check your understanding

Use the key information and comparison table.

1.Which statement about contraception is most accurate?
  • The contraceptive pill also protects against STIs.
  • Condoms can reduce STI risk and help prevent pregnancy when used correctly.

2.A couple wants to reduce the risk of both pregnancy and STIs. Which approach from the table addresses both goals?

4.Consent is , which means a person can change their mind. It must be given , without pressure.
5.What is the general legal age of consent to sexual activity in New Zealand, and does reaching that age remove the need for consent?

Part B: Apply your thinking

Read each situation and explain a safe, respectful response.

6.During a date, Riley agrees to kissing but later says, “I want to stop now.” What should the other person do, and why?
7.Morgan says, “If you cared about me, you would agree.” Identify the problem with this statement and write one respectful response Morgan could give instead.
8.Two people are considering becoming sexually active. Give two topics they could discuss beforehand and explain why each matters.
9.Taylor says, “I take the contraceptive pill, so we don’t need to think about condoms.” What important point is missing from Taylor’s reasoning?
10.Name one appropriate source of reliable contraception or sexual health advice in New Zealand, and give one question someone could ask.
