Favourable Attitudes Towards School And Students' Perceptions Of Curriculum Choice, M Sheret, L Fink, John Ainley

Dr John Ainley

The paper examines Year 11 students' attitudes to their school experience, and how these attitudes are influenced by the background characteristics of the students and by the students' own perceptions of the degree of curriculum choice within the school. The paper then looks at some school and student characteristics to see if these can explain why some students are more satisfied than others with the subjects available for their curriculum choice.
