Programmes and interventions of risky behaviour prevention at school in practice

Publication at First Faculty of Medicine |
2015

Abstract

The publication presents the current state of development of prevention practice at elementary schools in the fi eld of risky behaviours of children and adolescents. It forms part of a publication tetralogy engaged in the current theory and practice of risky behaviour prevention and the quality and eff ectiveness of prevention programmes and interventions.

The publication is divided in three separate parts, which are closely connected. The fi rst part presents the original concept of the so called Minimum Prevention Programme (MPP), i.e. the recommended minimum curriculum of general prevention for elementary school children.

The second part of the publication then presents, using good practice examples, programmes and interventions that can be used to set up a possible MPP curriculum, i.e. that can be used to fi ll the proposed structure with its contents while off ering the possibility of variable setting up of the curriculum based on the possibilities and needs of the school and its children. The third part of the publication indicates how the proposed curriculum should be completed with programmes and interventions on the level of selective and indicated prevention, thereby adequately refl ecting the needs of more vulnerable groups or individuals.
