Schools programmes
The Peace Foundation Network has a long history of work in schools and a number of very positive evaluations have been completed over the years including ones from Sheffield University, The Department of Health and Related Research and Lancaster University (primary pupils) and a community psychologist (secondary pupils). A Longitudinal evaluation has also been completed again with very positive results.
In the Sheffield area over 20 schools have participated; many on an annual basis.
