dc.description.abstract | Although a wide body of research on school violence exists, much of the work is concentrated within westernized contexts, particularly within the American context, and is focused on: the types of violent behaviours exhibited, the causes of the behaviour, and solutions to reduce the behaviours. Within the local context, research done identifies root causes of school violence and possible solutions.

The purpose of the current research is to fill this gap by engaging in a study that examines the impact of school violence on students who are secondary victims, and using their voices to create interventions to improve their school experiences and, as a corollary, their achievement.
