Evaluation

Helen Street, an Associate Professor and senior lecturer at the University of WA and co-founder of Wise Solutions has been involved in the evaluation of the effectiveness of The Game Factory program in Australia and in the UK and has this to say:

“I have been delighted to continually and consistently report on the effectiveness of The Game Factory program as an ongoing means of improving positive social behaviour across entire school populations. In addition, I have found that levels of social phobia and separation anxiety have been very low in schools employing this program. Overall the program has been found to be an excellent and sustainable means of increasing classroom cohesion and consequently overall student wellbeing.”

Wise Solutions whole school evaluations have been instrumental in encouraging teachers to look closely at all students in terms of their specific mental health and wellbeing. They have enabled schools to gain increased understanding of their strengths and weaknesses. They have also been vitally important in providing schools with details of particularly vulnerable children who need follow up and further assessment.

Wise Solutions whole school evaluations have afforded schools the opportunity to have objective hard data reporting on the effectiveness of The Game Factory for all students.
