Q.
How does Narconon®
Drug Education align with the new curriculum
guidelines?
A. The Narconon drug
education format aligns with Sub-Section
2.4 Drug Education In The Curriculum
( Section 351, Education Act 1996 ) Key
Stages 2, 3,& 4, regarding the effects
of drugs, alcohol, solvents and tobacco
on body functions and general health.
Q.
How much do the presentations cost?
A. Contact the Narconon
Drug Education office for current tariffs.
Full or partial sponsorship from the corporate
sector is also often available.
Q.
How many pupils do you prefer to address
in a session?
A. We range from 30 to
full lecture halls or assemblies. We understand
it’s easier to work around a school’s
timetables and schedules. In that way
it makes less problems for the PHSE teachers
involved.
Q.
Can the length of sessions be varied if
required?
A. Yes, the format can
be modified to allow for time constraints.
Q.
How long has the Narconon Drug Education
network been delivering drug education
in schools?
A. Since 1985 in the
UK.
Q.
Are your presentations available across
the UK?
A. Yes. For Northern
Ireland, however, we require three months
notice for bookings.
Q.
Is there any religious content in the
Narconon Drug Education format?
A. No. Narconon Drug
Education UK is a secular charity.
Q.
Does Narconon Drug Education work with
other organisations?
A. Yes. We sit on the
National Drug Prevention Alliance and
work with other local groups wherever
possible.
Q.
How does Narconon Drug Education stand
on the current “Harm Minimisation“
approach?
A. We are vehemently
against it. Drugs are dangerous, either
physically, mentally or both. There are
no grey areas with regard to this.
