Summary
The aim of this study is to measure the impact of the intervention (PAX GBG) in Estonian-language 1st grade classrooms on students' mental health and behaviour, and teacher's self-efficacy.
Detailed description
2-year, matched-pair, cluster-randomized controlled trial with a intervention and wait-list control arm is conducted during school years 2016/17 and 2017/18. 42 volunteering schools were matched to pairs. One school in each pair was randomly selected to receive the PAX GBG or continue their normal activities without intervention. After a post-test assessment in spring 2018 the control group teachers are trained and supported to implement PAX GBG.
