Role, Institutional Factors, and Students’ PerformanceAbstract
Education is vital to meeting the demands and expectations of society today and preparing the next generation to do the same. It plays a significant role in developing the next generation of responsible citizens by providing them with the necessary human capital. The current study has two objectives: to determine the institutional influence on students' performance at the secondary school level and to analyze the impact of institutional and physical facilities on secondary school students' performance. The researchers used descriptive survey research to execute the objectives of the study. All the secondary school teachers in district Sialkot constituted the population of the study. The sample of the study was one hundred and eighty secondary school teachers and data were collected through a questionnaire as research tool. After collecting data, the statistical techniques of percentage, mean score and standard deviation used. The study found that nearly 90% of respondents believe that a good classroom environment helps students learn and is also important to students' achievement. More than 6% disagreed or did not need to be sure. The study concluded that most institutional characteristics substantially affected students' grades. Most respondents (99%) said that a classroom setting affects kids' ability to learn, and approximately 84% of respondents said that a safe and secure school climate improves students' ability to study.
