Our Approaches
Comprehensive: The SCSS Model defines ‘school safety’ broadly. The definition includes social, emotional, and physical safety and encourages the use of both prevention and intervention. Prevention means addressing the root causes of violence by increasing the safety of the areas in the long run, and intervention means decreasing threats in the currently unsafe environment.

Research methodologies
The project uses a mixed method design to turn knowledge into strategies and to turn strategies into practice and involves following studies. It means that the project uses quantitative data, including statistics, as well as qualitative data, including interviews. In the Indonesian version of SCSS model, there are 7 studies.
Four studies are integral parts of the original SCSS model in Colorado, USA:
1. Action Plan Questionnaire
2. Pre-Post School Climate Survey (pupils, staff, parents)
3. Readiness Assessment
4. Process Evaluation (e.g. implementation fidelity)
The following three studies planned for Indonesia are supplementary to the original version of SCSS model:
1. Assessment of Recognition of Signs, Symptoms and Practice
2. Analysis of Social Networks, Peer Contagion and Social Media Violence
3. Pre-Post-Clinical Assessment
