Managing students’ discipline in classroom is not a simple task to be carried out especially when it involves majority of students who are academically poor (Ee Ah Ming, 2001). Failure in managing and controlling classroom can cause pressure among teachers which eventually may lead to burnout (Fernandez-Balboa, 1991). Having good personality, being dedicated and committed as well as possess intelligence and the ability to act rationally are to a great extent needed by a teacher in managing students’ discipline in classroom to ensure a conducive classroom atmosphere that may lead to effective teaching and learning process (Cameron, 1998; Morrison, 2009).
The extent to which teachers are capable in managing discipline in classroom is very significant in making sure the aims and objectives of teaching and learning could be completely achieved. Research on managing students’ discipline in classroom as the present study is vital since the findings may be of great help for teachers in school as guidelines in managing students’ discipline in classroom effectively.
