School\u2010based substance use prevention interventions are recommended globally, are commonly implemented in Australian primary schools and require rigorous evaluation to determine whether they deliver intended benefits. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of a routinely implemented Australian school\u2010based substance use prevention program in reducing primary school students' intentions for future use, awareness, knowledge and confidence to avoid tobacco, alcohol and other drugs.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A waitlist\u2010controlled pre\u2010post study was conducted with Year 5 students attending government primary schools (28 intervention, 15 control) in 2018 in NSW, Australia.
