Instructional Leadership Skills of the Public Secondary School Administrators of Malasiqui District II-A

Abstract

This study investigated the instructional leadership skills of public secondary school administrators in Malasiqui District II-A, Pangasinan during the 2025-2026 school year. Using a descriptive-normative survey method with 30 school managers and 135 teachers as respondents, the study examined leadership skills across four dimensions: provider, instructional resources leader, communicator, and visible presence. Findings revealed that school managers demonstrated very satisfactory skills as providers (AWM=3.51) and in visible presence (AWM=3.56), while skills as instructional resources leader (AWM=3.16) and communicator (AWM=3.39) required improvement. Teachers perceived provider skills as very satisfactory (AWM=3.56) but rated other dimensions as fairly satisfactory. Serious problems affecting instructional leadership included overlapping activities (AWM=3.20) and limited funding (AWM=2.87). No significant differences existed between管理者 and teacher perceptions across most dimensions. An action plan was developed to enhance instructional leadership competencies.
