For these children it is not enough to gain academic skills in school, it is also important to develop social and emotional skills. These skills contribute to achieving success in school. The system of prevention involves all the students, reinforces the acquired social and emotional skills and also prevents the appearance of risk behaviors. The process of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is in the service of primary prevention, which can help students to learn, practice and reinforce skills. Certain SEL programs will be reconsidered to see how these programs function in practice and which methods are in the service of skills development.
