To reduce the prevalence of sexually abusive behaviors toward children, the objective of this research was to assess the degree of the information held by students regarding reproductive health and readiness for puberty. This study uses quantitative research methods. Data collection is done through a questionnaire technique. The questionnaire was adopted and modified from the CKAQ-RIII research questionnaire. Data were analyzed using univariate tests through SPSS statistical program. Most respondents were female (51.9%) and male (48.1%). The average knowledge of respondents about the right touch is good (6.23%), while the intermediate knowledge of respondents about the wrong contact is still low (10.57%).

As part of an effort to reduce the prevalence of CSA in educational settings, this research investigated the level of understanding fifth and sixth graders have regarding suitable and inappropriate forms of physical contact. CSA prevention education programs are urgently needed in schools. Such as health education about reproduction and puberty.
