The purpose of this study is to investigate some perceived factors in students reading achievement. This study focuses on the correlation between fourth graders’ safety feeling inside school environment and their reading enjoyment towards their reading achievement. Descriptive analysis used in this study and data draws from Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS) 2016. The participants were 3349 students in their fourth year of schooling in Hong Kong where 49.1% were girls and 50.9% were boys. The range of the age was 8 to 15 years old. The result showed the importance of creating a safe school environment. Besides students’ perception of their school environment, students’ reading enjoyment was another factor which influenced reading achievement.
