The present study aimed to examine the determinant factors of school-related gender-based violence and its socio-cultural implications for female academic fulfillment in Wolkite town secondary schools. In terms of the research approach, sequential mixed explanatory methods were used. This study took Wolkite secondary schools students and respondents (n = 215). The study results have shown that the most significant socio-cultural determinant factors for school-related gender-based violence resulted from a lack of societal motives to address the problem and gender discriminatory norms bitterly blamed. From this finding, the researcher concluded that the sociocultural practices of the patriarchal ideology that society entertains have a tremendous impact on female students being victimized by gender-based violence and their educational attainment. Policymakers should therefore have significant involvement in school-related gender-based violence.
本研究旨在探讨沃勒凯特镇中学与学校相关的性别暴力的决定因素及其对女性学业成就的社会文化影响。在研究方法方面，采用了顺序混合解释性方法。本研究选取了沃勒凯特中学的学生和受访者（n = 215）。研究结果表明，与学校相关的性别暴力最重要的社会文化决定因素是缺乏解决该问题的社会动机以及备受指责的性别歧视规范。基于这一发现，研究人员得出结论，社会所秉持的父权制意识形态的社会文化习俗对遭受性别暴力的女学生及其学业成绩产生了巨大影响。因此，政策制定者应大力参与解决与学校相关的性别暴力问题。
