Strict Crackdown on E-Cigarette Use in British Schools
UK schools clamp down on e-cigarette use, with Ysgol y Strade in Carmarthenshire expelling students caught vaping on campus.

Schools in the UK are cracking down on the use of e-cigarettes, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. The proportion of children using e-cigarettes has seen an increase, prompting Ysgol y Strade School in Carmarthenshire to adopt a zero-tolerance approach towards students caught using them on campus. Offenders will be immediately expelled and repeat offenders will face even stricter punishments.
