Carmarthenshire pupils' vaping and abuse prompts schools' letter

These included an increase in inappropriate use of social media, more pupils using e-cigarettes - or vapes - during the school day, and more graffiti and abusive language directed towards peers and staff.

The letter noted research which suggests vaping can be addictive, can slow brain development in teenagers and lead to smoking cigarettes. The letter ended with head teachers encouraging parents to discuss the concerns with their children, while teachers do in schools.Rebecca Williams, policy officer at teaching union UCAC, said "quite entrenched" problems have "reached a bit of a head now".
