The school brings the risks of smoking to the attention of students in the following ways: For each year group, as part of the structured PSHCE programme: material appropriate to age is presented to students, with the opportunity for subsequent discussions in tutor groups. For students in Science classes: the topic is raised several times in <strong>Key</strong> <strong>Stage</strong> 3 and 4 courses. For all students: medical staff ensure that health promotion posters concerning smoking are prominently posted. Literature and other advice is freely available to any student who seeks help via an appointment with a doctor or member of the nursing staff. 41
What happens when students are caught smoking or vaping? In cases where students are found smoking or in possession of cigarettes or e- cigarettes the response from the school seeks to meet three aims: 1. To provide a deterrent to the student and to others. 2. To persuade the student not to smoke in the future. 3. To support the student in his/her efforts not to smoke in the future. Action taken is as follows: First offence Second offence Subsequent offences Letter home to inform parents. Phone call to parents to discuss the problem, and to suggest sources of help for the student. Student put in Saturday detention. Student suspended from school, generally for two days. Letter home to parents, stating that on return to school the student will be places on observation report for a week, and that any further infringement may lead to exclusion from the school with a loss of fees already paid. As ‘Second offence’ with longer period of suspension or requirement to leave the school, with a loss of fees already paid. In cases where a student’s smoking results in a significant risk of fire, the health and safety of other members of the school community are jeopardised. We view this as an even more serious misdemeanour and immediate suspension from the school may ensue. Those found in the company of smokers will be treated as smokers and thus dealt with in the same way. So if you are with smokers, even though you are not smoking you will be treated as if you were. Be aware! 42
