Abstract:
The research objectives were: 1. to study the organizational climate as perceived by teachers in schools under the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA); 2. to examine teacher performance based on their opinions; and 3. to investigate the relationship between organizational climate and teacher performance in these schools. The sample comprised 410 teachers from 205 BMA schools, selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a four-part questionnaire consisting of demographic information, organizational climate assessment, teacher performance evaluation, and open-ended suggestions. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics (percentage, mean, and standard deviation) and Pearsons product-moment correlation coefficient to determine the relationship between variables.
The research results found that:
1. The organizational atmosphere type according to the perception of teachers in schools under the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration is an open organizational atmosphere, which is related to the behavioral dimensions of administrators and teachers in 3 dimensions: the behavioral dimension of administrators in terms of support (S), the behavioral dimension of teachers colleagues (C), and the behavioral dimension of teachers closeness (Int).
2. The opinions on the performance of teachers under the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration are at the highest level, ranked in order as follows: performance of teachers duties, relationships with parents and communities, and learning management.
3. The study of the relationship between the open organizational atmosphere and the performance of teachers in schools under the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration found a moderate relationship at .617, with statistical significance at the .01 level, which is a consensual relationship.
