Peer buddy systems have been demonstrated as very successful
with older students. Positive effects are recognized for the
individuals befriended and also for the whole community.

develop a programme which achieves these outcomes at the stage when
they are learning the skills of friendship and co-operation.
Using her popular style of differentiating activities and
teaching for two age groups, 6-8 and 9-11, Margaret has provided an
exciting, innovative and challenging programme which enhances the
citizenship curriculum and the atmosphere of the school.
