Abstract

This study aims to explore the impact of school climate on students' learning abilities. With the impact of the global epidemic, students' learning methods have changed and their learning motivation has also declined. Schools have also adjusted their operating models accordingly, resulting in changes in students' learning abilities. Based on the core educational goals of the 21st century, this study focuses on the multi-dimensional aspects of school climate, including teacher-student relationships, student relationships, fairness and safety of school rules, etc., and analyzes how these factors affect students' learning abilities. Research shows that a positive school climate, especially good teacher-student and student relationships, can significantly improve students' learning abilities. This study recommends improving students' learning abilities by improving school climate and proposes corresponding improvement measures.
