Lecturer Fatima Turki Sahib – Department of Prosthetics and Orthotics Engineering<br /><br />Aggressive behaviors are among the most prominent challenges facing educational institutions around the world. These behaviors manifest in various forms, such as physical violence, verbal abuse, vandalism, and bullying. This phenomenon results from the interaction of multiple influencing factors affecting students, including family, psychological, social, and school-related aspects. Educational and psychological studies indicate that the continuation of such behaviors can lead to negative consequences for the student, their peers, teachers, and the educational environment as a whole.<br /><br />This study aims to analyze the underlying causes of aggressive behaviors among students and highlight their negative impacts on the educational environment, while also proposing effective educational strategies to reduce them. These strategies include enhancing psychological and social support programs, instilling moral values, and improving classroom management techniques to foster better interaction between teachers and students. This study represents an important step toward providing a safe and healthy educational environment that supports students' positive growth and development both personally and academically.<br /><br />**Relevance to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):** <br />1.
