With the ongoing struggle institutions are facing against student vaping, investing in proactive prevention has never been more crucial. A recent BBC report called this an ‘epidemic of e-cigarettes and disposable vape use in schools’, and it’s causing serious health problems in children and young people.
The report found that around 1 in 5 teenagers have tried vaping, which is an increase of ⅓ in the last 12 months, and this could be happening in your school.
While there is undoubtedly a wider debate to be had across the UK, there are preventative measures your institution can take to reduce and eradicate the use of vapes and e-cigarettes from your premises.
Join our webinar in collaboration with Verkada on Wednesday 22nd May to discuss the state of the vaping epidemic across the education sector, and the benefits of using hybrid sensors and security solutions.
