Guidance for Schools

Public Health Wales have published comprehensive information and guidance on vaping for secondary aged learners in Wales.

The proportion of children in years 7 to 11 in Wales reporting vaping at least once a week rose to 7% in 2023, an increase from 5.4% in 2021 and 2.7% in 2019, according to figures from the School Health Research Network. The data shows that 19.6% of young people (aged 11 to 16) have tried vaping in Powys, slightly lower than the Welsh average of 20.4%.
