Abstract

Trust in the authorities by students in upper secondary education (EMS by its initials in Spanish) in Mexico is a fundamental element to guarantee educational quality, since the absence of this trust is a significant factor in student dropout (ENDEMS, 2012) and has serious effects on school achievement (INEE, 2006). Through a logistic regression analysis, this paper inquires into the elements that condition trust in the authorities and the relative weight each one of these factors has, taking as a reference the individual component (the school population) and the contextual one (the school management), in order to highlight the importance of trust in the development of public educational policies at this level of education.
