The school environment is considered one of the most important formal educational environments that contribute to the processes of social upbringing of individuals with the aim of preparing them in a sound and integrated manner in various social, cognitive and environmental aspects, and preparing them to contribute to comprehensive development processes in the future. School environmental education is part of the general educational goals that the Algerian educational system seeks to achieve, based on the urgent need to find educational methods and solutions to reorganize individuals' relationships with their environments. Accordingly, our current study aims to identify the role of the school environment in consolidating the dimensions of environmental education, and this through its most prominent components represented in school management, teacher and school activity based on the main question of the study, which is: What is the role of the school community in consolidating the dimensions of environmental education for pupils in the second and third primary stages? Several partial questions stemmed from it, as follows: What is the role of the school administration in consolidating environmental knowledge for pupils of the second and third primary stages? What is the teacher's role in instilling environmental values for pupils in the second and third stages of primary school? What is the role of environmental activities in consolidating environmental skills for pupils of the second and third stages of primary school? The study reached several partial results through which the main question of the study was answered, which is that the school environment contributes to a limited extent in consolidating the dimensions of environmental education for students of the second and third stages of primary education, which was evident by answering the first sub-question of the study, as it was found The role of school administration in consolidating environmental knowledge for pupils is somewhat relative. As for the second sub-question of the study, it was found that the teacher's role in establishing environmental values for pupils in the second and third primary stages is acceptable to some extent despite the administrative obstacles, as they contributed relatively to directing students with the importance of appreciating and preserving environmental elements and imparting them to environmental values. As for the third sub-question of the study, it was found that the role of environmental activities in consolidating environmental skills for pupils of the second and third primary stages is limited due to the lack of environmental practices within school circles of various classroom and non-classroom types, except for some simple environmental activities within the departments organized by some teachers. Then the conclusion was touched upon and the most important recommendations and suggestions that can be used, and we mention them: The need to activate the role of the school administration to contribute with teachers in providing students with environmental knowledge and values by activating environmental awareness work within school circles and creating spaces equipped and suitable for organized environmental activity. Ensure that the teacher is trained during service in the field of environmental education and provide him with methods and methods of field environmental work to communicate the goals of environmental education to students. The necessity of equipping school environments with the means and material capabilities necessary for environmental activity such as gardening tools, as well as establishing green clubs, collective environmental work workshops and halls for displaying environmental documentaries and other films... Focusing on environmental activities inside and outside school circles with applied treatment and linking them to the local environment of the student. (Author’s abstract)
