Sample: A simple random sample (N=283) was taken from the above setting. Tools: Data collection depended on four tools: The first was a two-part structured interview questionnaire: Part I covered the students’ socio-demographic data, whereas part II comprised the family’s socio-demographic data. The second tool was the Children’s Perception of Inter Parental Conflict (CPIC) Scale, the third tool was the security in the Family System Scale (SIFS), and the fourth tool was the Academic Achievement Scale. Results: Less than half of the studied students had a moderate perception of inter-parental conflict, more than one-quarter had a low level of security in family, and more than half had an unsatisfactory level of academic achievement.
