Gatehouse 项目是一种创新、全面的中学心理健康促进方法。它旨在促进学生的参与和学校的联系，以此作为改善情绪健康和学习成果的方法。全校干预的关键要素是建立和支持校本青少年健康团队；通过学生调查确定每所学校的社会和学习环境中的风险和保护因素；并通过使用这些数据，确定和实施有效的策略来解决这些问题。该项目评估采用了涉及 26 所学校的整群随机对照试验设计，初步结果表明在降低 8 年级儿童吸烟率方面取得了相当大的成功。本文描述并解释了学校如何通过能力建设过程进行系统层面的变革。这鼓励教师、家长和学生以不同的方式看待教育的核心业务。
The Gatehouse Project is an innovative, comprehensive approach to mental health promotion in secondary schools. It sets out to promote student engagement and school connectedness as the way to improve emotional well-being and learning outcomes. The key elements of the whole-school intervention are the establishment and support of a school-based adolescent health team; the identification of risk and protective factors in each school's social and leaning environment from student surveys; and, through the use of these data, the identification and implementation of effective strategies to address these issues. The project evaluation used a cluster-randomized controlled trial design involving 26 schools with initial results demonstrating considerable success in reducing smoking rates among Year 8 children. This article describes and accounts for how system-level changes have been made in schools through a process of capacity building. This encourages teachers, parents, and students to view the core business of education differently.
