1.3. The Dream School Program (DSP)
The DSP is a universal model aimed at improving the psychosocial environment through a whole-of-school approach developed by the non-governmental organization Adults for Children. With its universal approach, it represents the first tier of prevention work [The DSP was administered to 2127 students (in 143 classes) across 12 schools. The number of year 1 classes in each school varied from two to six in the smallest schools and from eighteen to thirty in the largest. The core elements of the program are dream classes 1 and 2, which are three-hour sessions focusing on the class climate for pupils in year 1 and are carried out in the first or second week after the start of school and at the beginning of the spring semester. Student mentors are involved in the implementation of these meetings. These are older students, who after training by Adults for Children monitor the psychosocial environment at school. There were 313 student mentors at the 12 schools that introduced the DSP in the autumn of 2016. The contact teachers were also trained by Adults for Children and involved in the implementation of the dream class. They were responsible for implementing the action plan that the class creates and important partners for the student mentors in their work with the class. At each school, a resource group was set up, with school managers, teachers, students, and other employees responsible for conducting the DSP in their school [
