Drug proof: a practical approach to using the Department for Education′s documentation on drugs education

Abstract

Aims to guide teachers responsible for drugs education through Circular 4/95: Drug Prevention and Schools, which the Department for Education has recently sent to all schools, as well as through two other documents which the Department has made available: Drug Education: Curriculum Guidance for Schools, produced by the Schools Curriculum and Assessment Authority, and A Digest of Drug Education Resources for Schools. Poses questions for teachers to answer and suggestions for them to follow so that teachers may formulate a policy, design a programme and decide on methodology and resources appropriate to their individual institutions. Should be read in parallel with the documents, as it makes many references to them.
