Armed conflict in Sudan has significantly disrupted primary education in Gezira State, affecting school attendance, student engagement, and behavior. Delayed enrollment, displacement, trauma exposure, and limited access to learning resources have contributed to academic challenges and increased tendencies toward aggression among some students. Based on qualitative observations from school health programs, this study highlights the critical role of family medicine in mitigating these impacts through school-based preventive care, psychosocial support, health education, and community engagement. Integrated family medicine interventions were associated with improved attendance, enhanced emotional regulation, and better student adjustment to school routines. Strengthening school health services led by family physicians is essential to promote resilience, restore learning continuity, and support the overall well-being of children in conflict-affected settings.
