@albericie It's important for kids to have a place where they can be expressive and establish their identity. "Comply with the school ethos" sounds like it would just penalise the weird kids (and as a former weird kid I object!).

Haven't said much on drug testing because it's already been said before. But a couple of key facts worth reemphasising: Most unemployed people don't use drugs. Drug use doesn't equal problematic behaviour/dependence. Quarantining payments doesn't help drug treatment.
