i would say everyone is entitled to be off duty, unless you are paid 24 hours a day, like armed forces. If you saw a student drinking underage I think you should report it but not because you are the students teacher but because its against the law and they could become ill. Skiving off school - as a parent I would appreciate being told. But I dont think you should get involved just because of your job but because you are a helpful human being - some may call this interfering. Just imagine how you would feel if you turned a blind eye to young drunk and turned up at work on monday to hear that they died of alcohol poisoning. If you feel strongly enough about something follow your heart and do what you think is right. If you dont give a hoot then walk on by.
