Rapid Review: What is the effect of school-based strategies or interventions that promote elementary and secondary student and caregiver engagement?
Involving students in leadership roles, restorative justice programs, and inclusivity-focused programs are promising strategies to boost school engagement. Evidence is less clear for the impact of socio-emotional learning, behavioural and mental health-focused interventions: this is likely to change as more evidence becomes available.
