Area of Science:

  • Child and Adolescent Mental Health
  • School-Based Prevention Programs
  • Educational Psychology

Background:

  • Schools are crucial for preventing mental health issues in children and adolescents.
  • Existing frameworks detail school prevention components, but schools' perspectives and priorities are less understood.
  • Understanding school staff's conceptualization of prevention is vital for effective implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore how school staff conceptualize mental health prevention.
  • To identify current and desired prevention activities in schools.
  • To determine school staff's priorities for developing prevention efforts.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative content analysis of data from four workshops.
  • Involved 18 school staff members from 13 educational institutions.
  • Categorization of prevention activities into themes of delivery and organization.

Main Results:

  • 12 categories of prevention activities emerged under 'prevention delivery' and 'prevention organization'.
  • Schools widely implement universal prevention activities.
  • Highest priorities for improvement are organizational: systematic planning, coordination, and supported personnel.

Conclusions:

  • School staff view organizational capacity-building as essential for mental health prevention.
  • Effective prevention requires policies supporting the organizational work schools undertake.
  • Future prevention strategies must address systemic planning, coordination, and staffing needs.
