ABSTRACT
Learning satisfaction plays a crucial role in shaping students’ academic engagement, persistence,
and overall achievement. This study adopts a multi-dimensional perspective to examine learning
satisfaction among secondary school students, focusing on four core dimensions: content relevance
satisfaction, learning opportunities satisfaction, motivation satisfaction, and feedback and
personal growth satisfaction.
Using a sample of 350 students from government, government-aided, and self-financed schools,
the research employed quantitative methods to analyze variations across demographic and
institutional factors. Findings reveal significant differences in satisfaction levels across
dimensions, highlighting the interplay between instructional practices, supportive learning
environments, and student motivation. The study underscores the need for holistic educational
strategies that address multiple aspects of the learning experience to enhance student
satisfaction and success.
