Abstract
The present study aimed to explore the impact of family violence on education and the extent of students’ enrollment in public schools in Amman in the light of some variables from the perspective of the special education teachers at these schools. The sample consists from 400 special education teachers. Those teachers were selected through the random cluster sampling method. A descriptive survey-based approach was adopted. To meet the study’s goals, a questionnaire was developed. The validity and reliability of the questionnaire were measured. It was found that the severity of the impact of family violence on education and the extent of students’ enrollment in public schools in Amman is high. It was found that there are statistically significant differences –at the statistical significance level of (a ≤0.05)- between the respondents’ attitudes which can be attributed to gender. The latter differences are for the favor of females. It was found that there isn’t any statistically significant difference –at the statistical significance level of (a ≤0.05)- between the respondents’ attitudes which can be attributed to experience or academic qualification. The researchers recommend activating the role of teachers in fighting against family violence and its impacts on students’ enrollment in schools. They recommend activating the role of social studies teachers in communicating with parents. They recommend conducting studies about the factors affecting the student’s family environment. They recommend holding several symposiums in cooperation with the civil society institutions in order to promote awareness about the implications of family violence. Through holding such symposiums, people must be encouraged to fight against family violence. In addition, they recommend encouraging students to talk about the family violence incidents that occurred with them. That is because the being afraid of talking about such incidents shall increase them. Keywords: family violence, education, school DOI: 10.7176/JEP/11-12-07 Publication date: April 30 th 2020
