UK: Halstead: Pupils found with drugs can go back to school

Evening Gazette, Essex

Friday 27 Sep 2002

---

Pupils who were found in possession of cannabis on a school trip at the
end of term have been allowed to go back to school.

Four boys from Ramsey School in Colne Road, Halstead, were found with
the drug while at theme park attraction Thorpe Park, Surrey, in July.

At the time the school launched an investigation and the pupils were
suspended beginning at the start of this term.

They will go back on Monday, September 30.

The decision to readmit the pupils was made by the school governors
disciplinary committee over the last ten days.

An Essex County Council education spokesman said: "The pupils have been
away from school for three weeks, which is a significant suspension.

"The school will be looking again at its drugs policy to see if changes
should be made in the light of these events."
