St Benedict’s College has a zero-tolerance policy towards the misuse of drugs and steroids and towards the illegal possession or storage of such substances on its premises. Boys are expelled for contravening this policy. This prohibition applies to all College activities and includes the use of steroids and other performance enhancing substances.
Random drug testing takes place on a regular basis and testing for the use of steroids occurs on reasonable grounds of suspicion.
As part of our responsibility for the welfare of our boys, the College believes it has a duty to educate and inform them of the consequences of drug use and the misuse thereof. This includes the dangers involved in the smoking and drinking.
