Sometimes, we need to know and accept the bitter fact that it is not all things we can learn in school.
Truly, schools may be an institution of learning, where we are groomed for what happens to us in the nearest future or what we aim to become but the undying truth remains that we can't be taught everything in school.
So for the cause of this prompt, I won't be imagining having been taught in school on knowing about self defense.
Self defense is simply knowing the hacks or what to do when we are in danger, on how to ensure our safety out of deadly situations without getting hurt. So you see the reason why it doesn't have to be about been taught in school alone.
There are things we have to learn on our own. School doesn't teach us how to discern who to trust ourselves with, our children when we are not around to take care of them or people to do business with. We learnt these and more on our own in our personal school of life teachings.
Self- defense is a great thing to teach ourselves or even go for trainings. It is not compulsorily to learn just to fight a neighbour or be able to throw a hot punch or two when things turn red between us and our friends, but to be able to defend ourselves when as a lady you ended up in a lonely space with a rapist or an assaulter or as a guy in the midst of kidnappers or thieves. Saving ourselves in such cases or any likely situation is self defense which is recognized under the law as long as it is evident that you were trying to defend yourself from a criminal.
Unfortunately, I don't know any ways of self defending myself as I've not undergone any training or see any for myself other than the usage of my teeth if anything happens cos I have not really had an experience of any assault except for one when I was little of which my teeth was my saving grace even if they were so tiny back then but it worked wonders with my voice. (Though we don't need to wait for danger to happen before we learn how to escape from danger)
Having trainings on self-defense is actually a great one as we've had many people who could not stand up for themselves in times of trouble but definitely having skills to defend themselves would make them scale through any odd situations if need arise, most especially in this era of insecurities and terrorism.
