Understanding Adolescent Project (Primary)

EDB has launched the Understanding Adolescent Project (UAP) since the 2004/05 school year.  The UAP is a comprehensive support programme for personal growth.  It aims at enhancing primary school students’ resilience in coping with the challenges they face as they grow up.  Findings from students’ evaluation questionnaires indicated that students who have participated in the UAP generally made progress in emotion management, conflict resolution, goal setting and interpersonal relationship.  Parents and teachers considered that the project could cultivate in students an optimistic and positive attitude, sense of belonging towards their families and schools, communication skills and cooperation with others.
