VINHA, Telma Pileggi et al. School climate and respectful coexistence in educational institutions. Est. Aval. Educ. [online]. 2016, vol.27, n.64, pp.96-127. ISSN 1984-932X.  https://doi.org/10.18222/eae.v27i64.3747.

Coexistence problems, often translated as violence and lack of discipline, are some of the greatest difficulties faced by schools. This study aimed at the construction and testing of instruments to assess school climate for students, teachers and administrators, considering a correspondence between school climate and quality of interpersonal relationships. It also aimed to prepare and develop, in two public middle schools, an intervention project aimed at improving the coexistence. Following the diagnosis of these schools' climate, an intervention was developed comprising: inclusion of a weekly subject in students' schedules; implementation of conflict mediation procedures; proposals of youth involvement and continued school staff training. This study presents theoretical and practical foundations to support improvement of the quality of the school climate and enables schools to plan for coexistence.
