Summary
School connectedness as define by Koivula & Hanikainen (2017) about relationship among children which provide a feeling of belonging to a community or certain environment. The researchers beforehand defined elements in connectedness to schools are as firmly associated to the school environment as a context / setting (Libbey 2004; Resnick et al 1997) and focus on personal interactions with people in the school (Blum & Libbey 2004; Goodenow, 1993; McNeely & Falci 2004; McNeely, Nonnemaker, & Blum 2002; Rowe, Stewart, & Patterson 2007; Wilson, 2004) and both (Bonny et al, 2000; Maddox & Prinz, 2003). When children start entering the school the accelerated development early childhood is enormously impacted by the environment of their daycare and school (Campbell et al, 2016). It is essential to have the right school environment and classroom management for children, starting to enter the school period and plays one of the factors in preventing behaviour problems among children. Preceding research has revealed that emotional and behavioral obstacles may persist into adulthood if left untreated (Idris, 2017; Ogbiji, 2018; Peprah, 2018)
