Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the proposed research is to develop, implement, and test the efficacy of a theory-driven evidence-based peer leadership program for elementary school students (Grade 6/7; age 11/12 years) in relation to (a) their own leadership skills and their leadership self-efficacy (i.e., confidence to lead), as well as (b) the physical literacy of younger (Grade 3/4; age 8/9) students with whom they are partnered.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Leadership Intervention Group

Teachers in the intervention group will receive a half day workshop from a member of the research team. These teachers will then provide a four week training program to Grade 6/7 students, who will then deliver a 10-week fundamental movement skill (FMS) training program to Grade 3/4 students.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Leadership Intervention

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Grade 6/7 teachers will take part in a workshop on developing transformational leadership among their Grade 6/7 students, and provide teachers with a 4-week training program. Teachers will implement a 4-week leadership development component to their Grade 6/7 students. Grade 6/7 students will then deliver a 10-week peer-led FMS program to Grade 3/4 students. The Grade 6/7 peer leaders will lead 2 x 30 min sessions per week during physical education classes, recess, or lunch times. In weeks two and three, peer leaders will be observed by members of the research team and provided with feedback using a structured checklist regarding their delivery in the session. Mid-way through the 10-week program teachers will deliver a booster leadership training component to the Grade 6/7 peer-leaders.

Waitlist Control

This group of students and teachers will act as a waitlist control group. Therefore, during the same time that the other group is receiving the intervention, this group will proceed with their normal practices.
