It all depends on the person and how old they are if they're in a relationship. But if they teach it in a health class or something then yeah It would teach people about it and how to prevent/stop it.

i've never really thought about domestic violence occuring in teenage relationships. whenever someone talks about it i always imagine the two being in their 30's or 40's for some reason. i don't really think it needs to be something brought up in school as i think it should be common sense that help is out there somewhere, it's just a case of looking. if you're in a domestic relationship i wouldn't advise the victim to fight back as it'd just make it worse, just get outta there fast
