Violence rising in Saudi schools
Sat, 02 Jun 2007 02:29:02

Violence in schools is a growing problem in Saudi Arabia and news about pupils attacking teachers feature prominently in the local media.

An English teacher was recently filmed and photographed being beaten black and blue until he fell unconscious after refusing to increase his pupils' examination marks, a local paper reported Friday.

Another schoolteacher had a gun put to his head and was forced to helplessly watch his car being torched after reporting two of his pupils joyriding outside the school where he teaches.

Teachers in the kingdom are horrified by what is happening and are calling on the authorities to provide them with protection.

A recent study conducted by two students under the supervision of Khadija Kaj Itani, an assistant professor at Effat College, showed that aggressive behavior is present at both intermediate and secondary schools, regardless of whether the schools are government-run, private or international.

The survey also showed that international schools tend to be the most violent, followed by government schools and then private schools. Victims include fellow pupils, schoolteachers, administration personnel, security guards and tea boys.

The study, which was conducted in Jeddah, added that in smaller towns and villages, violence tends to stem from tribal differences. Itani expressed concern at the findings and said that if the material taught at schools is beyond the grasp of pupils then this can cause them to react violently.

“Pupils in this day and age are strong but unwise. They can react violently especially when their parents play a minimal role in their lives,” he said.

Itani added that children copy their parents. “If parents stop yelling then children will also. The parenting style must teach children how to behave well with other people and how to become acceptable members of society. Teachers should also become more understanding of opposing views and open channels of communication with them,” she said.

According to her, low self-esteem and jealousy are also contributing factors. “The type of media that children, especially teenagers, are exposed to affects their behavior. From an early age, children are exposed to a lot of violence,” she said and added that this type of exposure messes up children's minds and emotions.
