The project intends to map the current knowledge about the psychological and social climate at primary and secondary schools and to create a review of the determining factors. This includes the identification of the strategies that pupils, parents, teachers and school management use perceive and judge school climate supplemented with the views of other professionals (school board, supervisors, school psychologists and counsellors, etc.). The empirical goal is to propose applicable indicators of school climate (combining the qualitative and quantitative approaches) for the assessment of the actual and preferred school climate. Climate at selected schools of various types will be compared and the differenced interpreted. We aim to find what is needed for the climate assessment to become a part of the standard course of school evaluation and school documentation. This all should lead to the development and testing of procedures or ways to influence school cliamte at the level of school management, staff or parents (community). Efforts will be made to advertise this topic among educational professionals and to incorporate it into all levels of teacher and school counsellor and psychologist education.
