Vaping among schoolkids is ‘bigger than smoking ever was’ according to the head of East Ayrshire schools.
Labour group leader, councillor Maureen McKay, asked East Ayrshire Council’s head of education, Linda McAulay-Griffiths, about the increasing proliferation of vaping among young people, asking whether it was tied in with the impact of covid and associated issues like anxiety.
Speaking at Wednesday’s cabinet meeting, Cllr McKay said: “There is something significant in relation to the uptake of vaping among young people, particularly within our secondary schools and how that has a real impact.
