The Department for Education and the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) have jointly produced new drug advice for schools. Advice includes: every school should develop a drugs policy, for which a senior member of staff should have responsibility, and schools should establish relationships with other agencies to ensure support is available to pupils affected by drug misuse. |
