Abstract [English]

Classroom climate refers to the prevailing mood, attitudes, standards, and tone that teachers and students feel when they are in the classroom. A negative classroom climate can feel hostile, chaotic, and out of control. A positive classroom climate feels safe, respectful, welcoming, and supportive of student learning. The study aimed to examine the class room climate in relation to academic achievement among students at higher secondary levels. The investigator adopted survey method to study the class room climate in relation to academic achievement among students at higher secondary levels. For this study a sample of 300 higher secondary students from five Govt and Private schools which are situated in and around Coimbatore district in Tamil Nadu were selected by the investigator using simple random sampling technique. The findings reveal that there is no significant relationship between class room climate and academic achievement among selected students at higher secondary levels.
