Today, I went with my son to a conference about sexual education at his high school. I guess it was all too late, because among the attendees I saw three girls from the same high school who were already pregnant. They aren't even 18. FML
Teen pregnancy has actually dropped a lot surprisingly. At least in countries with robust sex ed BEFORE people start getting sexually active. Don't worry, I had to sit in parenting class between my brother's pregnant GF and another pregnant girl, so it could be worse.

That does sound really broken, yeah.
I remember we had our first sex talk in school when we were 7, covered all the basic basics (penis, ******, sperm and eggs) which then went into more detail once we were around 10-11 or so, with condom use, pregnancy and all that, and then repeated and gone into even more depth (pills, where to get free condoms, how to use them and so on) around 13 or so.
Worked fairly well, tbh.

Sex ed should happen long before high school. And I don't mean sex ed saying abstinence is the only form of birth control.
