Abstract

The study examines the association between classroom disciplinary climate, students^ sense of school belonging, and learning achievements in Cambodia by applying Ordinary Least Squared (OLS) regression. The results show statistically significant correlations between both classroom disciplinary climate and students^ sense of belonging with students^ learning achievement across all subjects at the national level. However, more detailed examinations considering regional and school-type factors reveal significant relationships between disciplinary climate and learning achievement are seen only within rural schools and public schools. Regarding students^ sense of school belonging, almost similar results are shown.
