Poland will make health education a compulsory school subject from the next academic year, but a module on sexual health will remain optional, Education Minister Barbara Nowacka said on Thursday.
Six judges elected last month to Poland’s Constitutional Tribunal took their oaths in parliament on Thursday in a ceremony held without the president, deepening a dispute over the appointment process and a broader row over the rule of law.
The Civic Coalition, Law and Justice and the Confederation were on the podium of the latest parliamentary poll. However, the last of these groups is recording a decline in support. Apart from that, there would be only one more party in the Sejm.
In the latest poll, prepared by the National Research Group (OGB) for the Stan 360 portal, respondents were asked who they would vote for in the parliamentary elections.
The survey shows that the Civic Coalition can currently count on the support of (37.99 per cent of Poles) (an increase of 0.1 percentage points), and Law and Justice on 29.77 per cent (an increase of 1 percentage point).
The Confederation would also be on the podium with support at the level of 11.42 per cent (a decrease of 1.5 percentage points). The Confederation of the Polish Crown would also enter the Sejm with 10 percent of support (an increase of 1 percentage point).
Below the electoral threshold, on the other hand, would be: the New Left (4.92 per cent, a decrease of 0.4 percentage points), the Razem Party (3.29 per cent, an increase of 1 percentage point), the PSL (1.57 per cent, a decrease of 0.8 percentage points) and Poland 2050 (1.04 per cent, a decrease of 0.3 percentage points).
This means that if the scenario envisaged in the poll were to be implemented, none of the current coalition partners of Prime Minister Donald Tusk's party would enter the Sejm.
The Civic Coalition could then count on 209 seats in the Sejm, PiS - on 159 seats, the Confederation on 47, and the KKP - on 45.
The study was conducted using the CATI method between March 25 and April 4 on a representative group of 1,000 people.
