Abstract
The Educational Managers, Teachers and Parents are worried
to view a painful condition of child abuse in the schools of
Pakistan. Protecting school going children from such
maltreatment and evils are our basic and shared responsibility.
Therefore the role of educators averting child abuse is more
pivotal and radical. The present study explored four major
dimensions of child abuse in primary schools. The Participants
of the study were compromised of 27 educational managers
and 23 parents of students, whereas the sample of participants
was taken through convenience sampling method. The Focused
Group Discussion and Semi structured interview sheets were
used as instruments to collect the observations of participants.
The results exposed that an increasing number of children were
subjected to abuse on a regular basis in our schools. Findings
also revealed that the physical abuse happened moderately
while emotional abuse occurred more frequently. Moreover
physiological and sexual abuse was the part of our schools.
