In this paper we present the opportunities and obstacles of implementation of holistic sexuality edu- cation in the group of mentally handicapped children and adults in Slovakia. We describe the example of good practice of sexuality education in one special school on the background of survey results of educational needs of Slovak teachers in this education area (N = 95 participating schools). The results illustrate the persistent lack of understanding of sex education, but also of adequate education of teachers working with healthy and disabled children.
