Using specific educational and social strategies the Positive Peer Group Intervention Program (PPIG) is designed to improve self concept among at - risk students. Teachers were asked to identify children showing any one of four functional and / or dysfunctional characteristics of leaders (Positive Leaders, Controversial Leaders, Rejected Isolates and Neglected Isolates). 'Facilitators’ worked with each of these groups. Since each group demonstrated qualitatively different social skills, it was hypothesized that the program would impact them differentially. Scales from the Piers Harris Children’s Self - Concept Scale were analysed in a pre - post experimental - control design. After demonstrating statistically significant results, the differences among the four groups were investigated. The practical and educational implications of these differences are discussed.
