RANDOM drug-testing is set to be rolled out to all secondary schools in England as part of a crackdown on drug use among pupils.
From September, schoolchildren in Kent will be tested with mouth swabs for drugs, including cannabis, cocaine and heroin.
The move follows a pilot scheme at The Abbey School in Faversham that was said to have transformed the behaviour of pupils, as well as their results.
Peter Walker, the school’s former head teacher, said: “We had our best set of exam results in the school’s history. There was less disruption in the classroom, less incidents in the playground or on the way to school.
