Discipline in schools is a critical issue that impacts not only the academic
achievement of students but also the overall functioning and ethos of educational
institutions. Across the globe, schools are grappling with various discipline-related
challenges, ranging from minor disruptions in the classroom to severe forms of
violence and misconduct. The importance of maintaining discipline is well-
documented, as it ensures a conducive learning environment, fosters positive
student-teacher relationships, and supports the holistic development of learners.
However, the means of addressing disciplinary issues are widely debated, and the
solutions offered vary greatly across different contexts.
The purpose of this literature review is to critically examine global, continental, and
local perspectives on the issue of school discipline, with the aim of identifying
effective strategies to address it. This review seeks to highlight the origins, causes,
and effects of indiscipline in schools while also exploring potential solutions.
Additionally, this review aims to identify gaps in the literature that require further
exploration and to assess conflicting findings across different regions. The scope
of this review is limited to literature that focuses on school discipline across different
regions, and it seeks to answer the following research questions: What are the
major causes of disciplinary issues in schools? How do these causes differ across
global, continental, and local contexts? What solutions have been proposed to
address these issues, and how effective are they?
