Exploring Stakeholder Impact on Learning: A Regression Model of Educational Effectiveness

This study examines the relative influence of key educational stakeholders—teachers, parents, peers, and school administrators—on student learning effectiveness using a multiple linear regression approach. Drawing from a cross-sectional survey of secondary school students, the research investigates how perceived support from each stakeholder group predicts academic outcomes, as measured by a composite index of grade point average and standardized test performance. Results indicate that all four stakeholder groups significantly contribute to learning effectiveness, with teacher support emerging as the strongest predictor, followed by parental involvement, peer influence, and administrator support. These findings align with ecological and social-cognitive theories, highlighting the importance of both direct instructional interactions and broader environmental factors in shaping student achievement. The study underscores the need for holistic educational policies that strengthen teacher capacity, foster home–school partnerships, encourage positive peer cultures, and support school leadership. Implications for practice and directions for future research are discussed to promote more integrated approaches to improving student learning.
