Blueprint drug education research programme
The delivery report assesses the extent to which the programme was delivered as intended and identifies factors which either facilitated or hindered delivery. The practitioner report highlights findings particularly relevant to teachers delivering drug education. The blueprint programme was launched in September 2003 by the Home Office, in partnership with DCSF and Department of Health. It is a research programme designed to test the effectiveness of a multi-component approach to school-based drug education. The programme was designed as an exploration of trial conditions, results of which will provide both immediate learning to influence drug-education policy and practice, and a clearer idea of what future research priorities should be.
Blueprint delivery involved nearly 4,500 pupils and their parents, 200 teachers trained to deliver 3,000 Blueprint lessons and the production of over 50 high-quality programme materials. A report exploring the impact and outcomes of the blueprint programme will follow in Spring 2008.
