Until the Eton pupil was caught smoking cannabis, any pupil involved with drugs knew that he faced instant exclusion. Even boys caught using the drug outside Eton -- as Prince Harry did -- have been expelled as the result of a policy of zero tolerance introduced by John Lewis, the Head Master, who said: "We make it absolutely clear that use, possession or sale will mean forfeiting a place in the school." However, Mr Lewis is understood to have known since July that Prince Harry had been caught smoking cannabis. He was not available for comment yesterday. - --- MAP posted-by: Terry Liittschwager
