Summary/Abstract: For the last 20 years, it is the (secondary) school which has been the central point of education on drugs. However, the age border at which children and youngsters meet drugs for the first time has lowered; down to the period when children still go to primary school. Therefore the activities of prevention of drug use and abuse have expanded considerably also on this educational level. In the paper we shall deal with the influence and efficiency of drug education among children and youngsters as well as the influence and efficiency of various concepts of schools' conduct in the case of infringement of the rules concerning drugs in school.
