ASH SCOTLAND – Tobacco-free schools resource pack
All of our resources are designed to equip young people with the skills and confidence to make responsible decisions on smoking and their health and wellbeing.
The tobacco-free schools resource pack addresses a range of themes including e-cigarettes, finances, mental health, the benefits of being smoke-free, dealing with pressure, building confidence and resilience.
There’s a focus on active group tasks, group discussion, links to video clips, game based activities and printable resources to allow staff to develop lessons relevant to the learning needs of the young people you work with.
