The Friendship Saver Program
Evidence-based Social Skills Program for Classrooms.
Research with the University of Melbourne (pending publication) demonstrated that The Friendship Saver Program significantly improved children's social information processing skills and behaviours, as formally assessed in 5 Australian schools.
More recently, two 2018 and 2019 studies demonstrated significant gains in student engagement, student social problem solving, and teacher's understanding and confidence for teaching social skills in classrooms.
The Friendship Saver Program is currently delivered in classrooms throughout Australia and the UK. Classrooms are co-educational, single sex, and at-risk populations. This program is designed for middle primary school-age children.
