Description
This research proposal examines the mediating role of school culture in the relationship between educational policy implementation and teacher commitment. Teachers are the primary focus of this study as they are often underrepresented in educational research, despite being the cornerstone of effective learning environments. Using a mediation model, this study seeks to explore how policy-driven changes influence teachers' professional commitment through shifts in school culture. The findings aim to provide insights for policymakers and educators, advocating for teacher-centric approaches in policy development to support sustainable school improvement such as teacher training and curriculum standardization
