Attitudes of high school students towards peers and teachers-connection between the school climate

The aim of this paper is to determine aspects of the school climate through the prism of relationships with students and teachers. Students from three high schools in Mostar participated in the research (N = 399). Significance of differences among students was not determined in relation to students with regard to the school that students attend, but statistically significant differences were found in assessments of school climate and attitudes towards teachers with regard to the school they attend. Because students rated their teachers very low, the results obtained can serve as a guideline for improving studentteacher interaction. Teachers of the schools surveyed should work on their leadership and teaching style to create a comfortable school climate.
