Abstract
:
The Indian educational system starts from pre-primary and proceeds to primary, secondary, senior secondary and finally to higher education. Higher secondary education is a continuation of the secondary education. A career is important in student’s life. Career planning and career development is rooted in career maturity. A mature and discerned-well decision ensures life satisfaction; hence, it is significant. Career maturity is determined with five factors are education and competence, financial affordability, social support, progression opportunities and personality and attitude. School climate is typically used to describe the collective experience of the school environment, rather than the experience of individuals within the school (Hopson, 2013). A positive school climate brings out the best in students and the teachers. A negative school climate leads to poor academic performance. A detailed study reveals that the basic components of school climate are three: physical dimension, social dimension, and academic dimension. The investigator selected the 1,350 samples from 27 higher secondary schools from Mayiladuthurai, Nagapattinam and Cuddalore districts of Tamil Nadu state in India. The investigator opted to choose the survey method for the study. The formulated hypotheses and objectives were tested using appropriate statistical techniques like percentage analysis, ’t’ test, ANOVA, chi-square, correlation and regression.
