Reports: school climate
Figura 1: VA do 3º Ciclo do Ensino Básico
Why school climate?“School’s climate, as a variable, is far more directly responsible for pupils’ success than their social, economic and racial background.“
(Brookover et al. (1979) cf. Lima, 2008: 113)
Why school climate?“Culture shapes school’s capacity for change and improvement.”
(Sarason, 1996; Stoll, 1999b; Stoll and Earl, 2003: 495)
“Grosin’s research (1995) in Sweeden identified positive links between school climate and student’s mathematic progress, reading comprehension and behaviour” (Hopkins, 2003: 518)
School climate Definition:
the way as organizational
culture is perceived by the
members of one organization (Gonzalez Galan, 2004).
