A sixth of 15 to 16 year-olds have been involved in a fight and a tenth have been in trouble with gardaí after the consumption of alcohol, according to an official report.
The study found 10% of 15 to 16 year-old students have had sex without a condom and 7% of girls had unwanted sexual advances as a result of their own and others’ drinking.
The Ireland report for the European Schools Project on Alcohol and Other Drugs 2015 survey also found that 10% of girls that age had deliberately harmed themselves after drinking.
The report asked 15 to 16 year-old students what consequences they had experienced from alcohol, either from their own drinking or others, in the last 12 months.
