Principles for school drug education

Principles for school drug education

This document provides a framework of core concepts and values to support effective drug education practice within schools. The twelve principles are organised around four key interconnecting themes for effective school drug education: comprehensive and evidence-based practice; positive school climate and relationships; targeted to needs and context; and effective pedagogy. They are intended to convey the essence of what is currently understood as effective school practice, without prescribing a specific set of actions or procedures within a school.
