Peace education involves students evaluating regional, national and worldwide conflicts while thinking about peaceful resolution options. A peaceful school aims to establish a discipline policy that emphasizes giving students the power to manage and control their own behaviour. The purpose of this study is to resolve multiple types of conflicts that are found in our society. This study is based on a survey method which describes how peace education plays an important role to resolve multitype of conflicts which are found in our society The development of an educational system that facilitates conflict prevention and advances peace should be the primary responsibility of education planners and managers.
