Analysis

The analysis of data collected through the School-Level Environment Questionnaire – Short Form for Students and Staff (SLEQ-SA) focuses on understanding the different aspects of the school environment that affect students’ academic performance and overall well-being. The analysis typically involves examining responses across the various domains covered by the questionnaire, comparing different groups (such as students and teachers), and identifying any positive or negative trends. This analysis supports the development of strategies to improve school climate and the educational process.

Objective

The main objective of the SLEQ-SA is to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the school environment so that educational institutions can take action to improve school conditions. The goal includes enhancing the positive aspects of the school climate and addressing existing issues in order to support the learning process and increase satisfaction among students and teachers.

Scoring

The scoring of the SLEQ-SA includes the evaluation of the questionnaire’s reliability and validity. Statistical methods are typically used to ensure the results are consistent and reproducible. Scores are analyzed to determine whether the tool effectively measures the intended aspects of the school environment. Additionally, scores may be compared to other school climate assessments to confirm the accuracy of the results.
