    (Kampala International University, College of Higher Degrees and Research, 2012-09) OyelIa, Mary G.
    The study was meant to investigate Child protection system and response to child protection concerns in selected Payams in Tambura County, Western Equatoria South Sudan from May to September 2012.Both primary and secondary data were examined. It was also a descriptive-correlation since it sought to examine the relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variable. The population of this study was the records on the variables of the study and targeted 400 respondents. The objectives of this study were; to determine the level of child protection systems in Source Yubu and Mupoi Payams, determine the level of child protection concerns in Source Yubu and Mupoi Payams, compare if there are significant differences in child protection concerns between the young (8-llyears) and older (12-l7years) children both boys and girls and to establish whether there is no significant difference between child protection systems and response to child protection issues (concerns) and to establish whether there is no significant relationship between the levels of child protection systems and response to child protection issues (concerns). The researcher said formal education is central and that a child can’t do without to achieve life time wellbeing and that other systems work to enforce this . The first null hypothesis set was that; there is no significant difference between child protection systems and response to child protection concerns, but given the F-value as 1.61 and P-value as 0.217 > 0.05; the researcher therefore accepted the null hypothesis that there is no significant difference between child protection systems and response to child protection concerns. The second set null hypothesis was that; there is no significant relationship between child protection systems and response to child protection concerns, however given the r-value as -0.2506 and P-value as 0.217 which is greater than 0.05; the researcher went on to accept the null hypothesis that there is no significant relationship between child protection systems and response to child protection concerns.
