Teachers and Principals Perceptions of Principals Leadership Effectiveness in Selected Adventist Schools in the Philippines

The literature on school leadership repeatedly refers to the need for effective leadership of principals. This small (n = 85) study investigated the perceptions of teachers’ and principals’ on leadership effectiveness of the principals in selected Adventist schools in the Philippines. The respondents indicated their views of leadership effectiveness in observation and coaching in the learning process, setting and shaping expectation, creating disequilibrium, and engaging staff knowledge transfer. The result showed that there is no significant difference in the perceptions of respondents about effectiveness of the principals when grouped by demographic variables. However, when each sub item was carefully analyzed, there was one significant difference found with gender. The comparison means indicated that female respondents are more positive about principals’ roles in improving curriculum, assessment, and instruction when compared to male respondents.
