The development of students’ creativity plays a pivotal role in the implementation of the Innovation-driven Development Strategy. The school environment deeply affects students’ creativity, and the level of student participation in governance in schools is one of the key influencing factors. However, the connotation of student participation in governance remains unclear, and its mechanism of influence on students’ creativity is not well-defined. This study employed a mixed-method approach to analyze the connotation and dimensions of student participation in governance and its utility mechanism on students’ creativity. The qualitative part adopted the grounded theory to analyze interview of teachers and students, revealing that student participation in governance encompasses three dimensions, namely, freedom of expression, agenda participation, and deliberative discussion. The quantitative part revised the questionnaire of student participation in governance and conducted a large-scale survey. The findings display that creative self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation play intervening roles in the indirect influence of student participation in governance on students’ creativity. The serial mediation model obtained in this study sheds light on the relationships between these factors and suggests that schools should cultivate students’ creativity by providing students with a safe space for free expression, encouraging students’ participation in school agendas, and fostering an supportive atmosphere of deliberative discussion.
