I don't think it should, but if it was brought in for students, then it should be done for the faculty as well. I believe schools should stick with policing drugs in the school, but not policing drugs that are in the students. It is the parents job to stay up on their children and make sure everything is OK with them. If a student is coming to school and doing the work, but is slacking of in their grades, then the school should bring that to the parents' attention and leave it at that. Let the parents determine if there is a possible drug problem. Teachers can try to help the student as much as possible without becoming their parent.

Invasive procedures for ALL are a restriction on the rights of the innocent. If I suggested that you had to prove you were sober every time you got into a car I am sure you would be upset. Why into schools? Why not force parents to test their kids and report them to the authorities if they are on drugs? Why ask the schools (and therefore the taxpayer) to do this.
Don't worry not having a go at you. I just don't think we should have any more bull5hit form the government that costs more.

Only if the school - that is Senior Management Team, Staff, School Council, Pupils and Parents believe it would be advantageous to the majority of pupils, Decisions like this ought not to be taken by just one sector of the school community. If the SMT are trying to impose this, then get your class councils to have the item put on the agenda of your school council.

No. Even though the people who would be screened are minors, they still susptible to personal civil liberties, and by making all students take a mandatory drug screening would be an invasion of ones personal privacy.

Yes............... school is about educating and this would come into that category............... if the kids are taking drugs, you will be able to find out and help them before it becomes a long term problem. Also it may be a deterrent if they think that they are going to be found out....... and maybe their parents will become involved!

Yes if a person is showing signs of drug taking , for his / her safety and for the other pupils.

Yes, especially if you are involved in after school sport activities. Kids need to learn that drugs are addictive, and they can kill. Drugs also leads to violence, and are ineffective on trying to concentrate on school work.
