Abstract

Students’ character building will be influenced by the school environment as well as their PE teacher performance. The aim of this research is to analyze and verify the influence of school environment and PE teacher performance on elementary students’ character building. The qualitative method is applied in this research. There are twenty elementary schools in Semarang, including ten public schools and ten private schools that are used as research samples. The research samples are taken from five sectors in Semarang. The finding shows that the physical education subject gives significant advantages to the development of the students as well as supports students’ daily activity based on several evaluations by teachers, school principals, and parents. The conclusion attributed to the research is having a supportive school environment, including facilities and infrastructures, a good proportion of objective competition, a suitable physical education teaching model that is in line with the curriculum, and having supporting and well-competent teachers working in a linear field will give positive impact to students’ character building. This impact will be visible not only in school but also when the students are home as well. © 2023, author.
