Abstract

This field study seeks to shed light on the types of violence that exist in public education schools in the eastern province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). It attempts to identify the most common types of violence and define the sources and causes of school-related violence. The study employs the descriptive approach for examining two random samples. The first sample includes (200) male and female students from primary, preparatory, and secondary public and national schools in the eastern province of KSA. This sample is divided into (90) males and (110) females. The students sample ages are (6-18 years). The second random sample contains (45) male and female teachers working at public and national schools. The researchers use a questionnaire in the scoping study for identifying the types of violence. Consequently, they prepared the basic tool of the study which is a questionnaire on the causes of violence against school students according to the viewpoints of students and teachers. The study presents the following findings:

There are no differences of statistical significance for the average of students’ scores for the variable of gender type. This applies to all aspects of the violence questionnaire presented to students.
