Rising Vaping Issues Among School Pupils

Legislative Responses

The NASUWT is advocating for stricter regulations to help schools manage this issue. The UK Parliament is currently considering the Tobacco and Vapes Bill, which aims to address vaping among children. Data from the Welsh government indicates that 7% of youth aged 11 to 16 in Wales vape weekly, with the rate reaching 15.9% among 15 to 16-year-olds in year 11.
