        do you want a moral answer or a human right answer ?

          An answer based on school rules/guidelines for teachers/staff, if there is one.

          Hmm, does the school have a \"secret\" room for those smokers? I was just surprised to see one smoking at the gate the other day.

            it is personal habit

            because gov't regulation prohibits smoking in public places, hence he smokes outside the gate

              Well, you are right but:

              1. those students waiting for parents at the gate will see it. The young minds may think it is ok to smoke since the teacher/school staff is doing it.

              2. secondhand smoke effect for those standing too near or when there is wind.

                It could be a parent / PV...Did that person wear any identification which indicate he/she is school admin staff or teacher?...

                  Yes, a school staff/teacher.

                    I know you will say this.

                    So here is a teaching point for the kid : (1) don't smoke like your teacher; (2) teachers are also normal human beings and not everything teachers do are 100% legally and morally right; (3) normal human beings have failure too, big and small; (4) respect the teacher for his position and his authority; and (5) it does not mean a smoking teacher is lousy in teaching
