Kajian ini melibatkan 196 responden daripada pelajar tingkatan empat daripada empat buah sekolah menengah di Zon Kampar, Perak. Instrumen kajian adalah borang soal selidik. Data kajian dianalisis secara statistik deskriptif menggunakan kaedah frekuensi, peratusan dan min. Manakala data statistik inferens diuji menggunakan Korelasi Pearson. Kaedah ini digunakan untuk menentukan hubungan persekitaran fizikal bilik darjah dengan tahap keselesaan pengajaran dan pembelajaran pelajar. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa hubungan tahap persekitaran fizikal bilik darjah dengan keselesaan pengajaran dan pembelajaran adalah tinggi. Dapatan kajian juga menunjukkan terdapat hubungan yang signifikan pada tahap tinggi di antara persekitaran fizikal bilik darjah dengan keselesaan pengajaran dan pembelajaran pelajar di sekolah.
