The aim of this study was to explore teachers’ (n = 17) experience with the Second Step program (1986) as a tool for teaching social competence through semi-structured interviews. Findings suggest that use of the program had a positive influence on the teachers’ overall teaching techniques and their broader social behaviour. The majority of the teachers reported that they felt they had become more democratic and student-centred in their teaching, and more socially skilled—in particular, more aware of individuals’ needs and problems by using the program. Further, results also suggest using the program to promote better collaboration with parents.
