Associating Instructional Leadership of School Heads and Self Efficacy of Teachers Pivotal Outcomes

This study assessed the status of instructional leadership of school heads and its relationship with teachers' self efficacy in selected schools within the Tudela District, Camotes, Cebu Province Division for the School Year 2024 2025. The study utilized a descriptive correlational research design. An adapted and modified questionnaire was employed to gather data and analyze the correlation between instructional leadership and self efficacy. The school heads were aged 41–50, females, married, master's degree holders, with 6–10 years of experience, and had attended national level training. The teachers were aged 31–40, female, held a master's degree, had 6–10 years of service, received an outstanding performance rating, and participated in division level training. Results indicated that school heads demonstrated a high level of instructional leadership in resource provision, instructional support, communication, and supervision. Teachers exhibited a strong sense of self efficacy in instructional strategies and learner engagement, while classroom management was rated as moderately extensive among teachers and highly extensive among school heads. A significant relationship was found between instructional leadership and teachers' self efficacy, underscoring the crucial role of effective leadership in fostering teacher confidence and instructional effectiveness. The study concludes that instructional leadership positively influences teachers' self efficacy. It is recommended that the proposed Instructional Plan be utilized to enhance instructional leadership practices, strengthen teacher development, and improve overall teaching and learning outcomes.
