This research is motivated by symptoms of problems in schools that indicate low student welfare. Therefore, the researcher will measure student well-being with Islamic religiosity moderation. The results provide evidence that school climate and Islamic religiosity affect student well-being in Indonesia and Malaysia. Islamic religiosity is proven to be a moderating variable of the influence of school climate on student well-being.This study's results have implications for promoting mental health in schools by paying attention to environmental and personal aspects. Further, researchers need to study student well-being using a comprehensive approach, such as a mixed-method between quantitative and qualitative methods.
