School satisfaction is a key indicator of education quality in addition to academic achievement and student's coping efficacy, as well as an important factor to prevent school dropout. The primary aim of this study was to investigate how high-school students' school identification and self-efficacy were associated with school satisfaction. The study included controls for gender, education programme and parental education level. A self-report questionnaire was administered to high-school students at three upper secondary schools in Norway. The sample included 794 first year students. No respondents refrained from participating in the study. Most of the students in the study were satisfied with school. The current study underscores the importance of school identification. School identification was found to be more important for the students' school satisfaction than self-efficacy. Moreover, according to the results, teachers' social identity leadership appears to play an important role in students' school satisfaction. The findings imply that the teachers' social identity leadership is imperative in classroom management.
