This information booklet is part of a series developed for teachers, parents and students. The Teacher booklet was developed to provide:

  • Accurate evidence-based information about illegal drugs, their use and effects;
  • Guidance about how to talk to a young person about illegal drugs, and ways to protect students against drug use and related harms;
  • Information about how to help someone who has taken an illegal drug;
  • Information about school-based drug prevention programs that have demonstrated positive outcomes in Australia.

[Positive Choices is an online portal to help school communities access accurate, up-to-date drug education resources and prevention programs. With input from teachers, parents and students across Australia we are compiling resources that are engaging, interactive, and proven to improve student wellbeing.]
