INSTRUCTIONAL LEADERSHIP OF PUBLIC ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PRINCIPALS IN THE THIRD CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT OF QUEZON AND ITS IMPLICATION TO TEACHER’S PERFORMANCE

This study aimed to investigate the instructional leadership of public elementary school principals in the Third Congressional District of Quezon and its implication to teachers’ performance. It utilized quantitative approach, specifically, the descriptive survey method using survey questionnaire in gathering data from public elementary school principals and teachers in the aforementioned district. Percentage, weighted mean, and t-test were used as statistical tools in analyzing the data. Results of the study revealed that both school principals and teachers who participated in this study have rated the extent of school head’s instructional leadership with respect to all variables as practiced to a very great extent and that the school head’s instructional leadership provides implications that may be used as an avenue for the improvement of teacher’s performance and of the possible division/district programs and projects of every instructional leader and teachers. Among others, the study recommends that similar studies be conducted in other district or division in order to address more concerns on which leadership roles are being practiced and what implications they have to the teachers’ performance.
