Kell is joined by Associate Professor Emily Stockings from the University of Sydney's Matilda Centre to talk vaping prevention and what actually works in a 7-10 PDHPE classroom.
They cover why vaping exploded in NSW schools after COVID, why scare tactics fall flat with Stage 4 and 5 students, and what the evidence says works instead. Emily also shares details of the free Our Futures Vaping Prevention program for Years 7 and 8, already active in over 1,000 Australian schools.
In this episode:
- Why the consequences of vaping are almost invisible to young people
- Why scare tactics don't work and what evidence-based prevention looks like
- Three practical strategies for your 7-10 PDHPE classroom right now
