The objective of this article is to measure school climate to provide public educational institutions with a concrete, evidence-based and quantitative analysis of the situation. At the methodological level, a descriptive cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach is used. The variables addressed in this study were grouped into three modules: school climate test, individual student well-being and family functionality, as well as a survey of factors associated with school climate. The study was carried out in 51 institutions, with a population of 38,047 students enrolled in grades 6 to 11. According to the findings, it can be concluded that the school climate is influenced by internal and external dynamics. Dysfunctional families, lack of support and guidance affect student relationships, risk and threat factors such as theft, consumption and trafficking of psychotropic substances, presence of weapons, gangs and alcohol consumption, affect student relationships, leading to violence and insecurity within the institutions.

Abstract

The objective of this article is to measure school climate to provide public educational institutions with a concrete, evidence-based and quantitative analysis of the situation. At the methodological level, a descriptive cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach is used. The variables addressed in this study were grouped into three modules: school climate test, individual student well-being and family functionality, as well as a survey of factors associated with school climate. The study was carried out in 51 institutions, with a population of 38,047 students enrolled in grades 6 to 11. According to the findings, it can be concluded that the school climate is influenced by internal and external dynamics.
