Problem Statement: In order to prevent acts of violence seen in our schools in Turkey, scientific and executive circles must approach the subject with respect to quality of life as a whole and must consider protective and preventive solutions. The quality of life of the youth is affected by the personal characteristics of the individual, the environment lived in, the events and the cultural characteristics of the society. Characteristics of adolescence and risky living conditions affect the quality of life of the youth. It is necessary to evaluate the students in their environment and to upgrade their quality of life with a learner-focused approach so that they can become qualified individuals in all respects.
