  • Violence in educational institutions and its effects on students' achievement


Sundas Fatima, Aleena Zia

Abstract

The study aims to establish its own social learning theory and ascertain the violence in educational institutions and its effects on student achievement. 211 students from Bahawalpur private school students completed a faceto-face questionnaire to examine the results. According to Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) findings, school violence positively influences student achievement. The results also showed the association between school violence, peer violence, and family violence on the impact of student achievement. This model is appropriate for policymakers and practitioners to build a strategic plan to curb school violence and its impact on student's academic achievement. Finally, to improve the performance of secondary school students, counselors should take a prominent and proactive role in the topic by planning lectures, seminars, career talks, and other events. Several significant policy suggestions call for additional study, and theoretical and practical implications are suggested.
