The study was aimed at developing and conducting a training program for studying its effectiveness in changing the teachers‟ attitude towards students‟ corporal punishment. In the first phase a survey was conducted to collect data about the attitude of teachers towards students‟ corporal punishment; the second phase consisted of an experiment using a pre-test post-test design for measuring change in the attitude of teachers towards corporal punishment by conducting a training workshop. An Attitude Scale of Corporal Punishment (ASCP) for measuring teachers‟ attitude towards corporal punishment was developed. All the mathematics teachers of government boys‟ high/higher secondary schools in District Swabi and District Nowshera teaching secondary classes were taken as sample. However, only 94 of them returned the questionnaire making a response rate of 65%. Sixty-one of the ninety-four teachers were identified as having positive attitude. A total number of 51 teachers participated in the fourteen days training program. On the last day the post- test was administered and focus group discussion was conducted with the teachers taking their views on the training program. It was concluded that majority teachers believe in the use of corporal punishment and that the training was significantly effective in changing the attitude of teachers towards its use.
