REMARKABLE PREVENTION OUTCOMES FROM PRIMARY SCHOOL GOOD BEHAVIOUR STRATEGY
It didn't mention drugs, wasn't even a lesson, but this behaviour management intervention trialled
in Baltimore's first and second grade classrooms produced some of the most substantial and
long-lasting effects ever recorded from a school-based prevention programme. At ages 6 to 8, pupils
formed teams which could earn prizes and praise for good behaviour during lessons; 14 years later,
many fewer young lives were marred by substance-related problems, threatened by smoking, or on track
to cause serious social problems.
