Abstract
This paper describes a quantitative and qualitative evaluation of a drug education programme in schools. This description leads to discussion of the many influences beyond the classroom that severely challenge drug education.
A case is then advanced for drug education to be seen as a primary preventative measure in a framework of graduated responses that are related to students' needs and circumstances.
