| dc.description.abstract | School related Gender-based violence (SRGBV) has a marked influence on the demographic, socio-economic, and reproductive vulnerability of adolescents and youth, as well as directly or indirectly resulting in psychological, physical, and sexual trauma or injury and deprivation of their rights as human beings. There are different forms of violence student experience, Including physical violence, sexual violence, and emotional violence. This study sought to assess Gender Based Violence in schools. An institutional-based cross-sectional study design with mixed quantitative and qualitative approaches was used. The sample size determined for the study was 330 student respondents, who were taken for the study using the simple random-to-size sampling technique. A standardized interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to gather information on various issues, including demographic profiles, female and male students’ perceptions about Gender- based violence, the prevalence of SRGBV, and the effects of SRGBV; key informant interviews (KII) were purposefully held; in-depth interviews; and focused group interviews (FGDs) were employed to gather more information from respondents purposefully; and three groups of FGD respondents were formed based on their sex and status; each group has eight (8) members. According to the findings of this study, age and Low family income were significantly associated with GBV. So, the government needs to devise a strategy for preventing violence and promoting a safe learning environment in schools, perhaps through awareness creation, training education staff and families to give them the tools to prevent and respond to SRGBV and doing activities for students to improve their coping mechanisms to defend against violence. | |
