Abstract

Cannabis is the most frequently used illicit drug by Australian secondary school students yet there is scant research investigating school staff responses to student cannabis use. As such, this study surveyed 1,692 school staff who attended Generation Next seminars throughout Australia. The self-complete survey identified that the majority of school staff had discussed cannabis use at least once in the past year, although teachers were less likely to report having cannabis-related discussions compared to other school staff. Staff drug education training was consistently associated with an increased prevalence of cannabis-related discussion and assistance. These findings highlight a need for drug education among school staff and particularly among teachers.

澳大利亚学校工作人员处理学生使用大麻问题的经验。
大麻是澳大利亚中学生最常使用的非法药物,但很少有研究调查学校工作人员对学生使用大麻的反应。因此,这项研究调查了1692名参加澳大利亚下一代研讨会的学校员工。这项自我完成的调查发现,大多数学校员工在过去一年中至少讨论过一次大麻的使用,尽管与其他学校员工相比,教师报告与大麻有关的讨论的可能性较小。工作人员的毒品教育培训始终与大麻相关的讨论和援助的增加有关。这些发现强调了对学校工作人员特别是教师进行毒品教育的必要性。
