Abstract

The main purpose of this study was to determine the level of managerial performance of school heads, their strengths and weaknesses in the different areas of school management as perceived by school head themselves, their teachers, and senior students. It attempted to propose an enhancement plan based on the identified weaknesses vis-à-vis the managerial performances of school heads in performing their functions. The study used a descriptive method of research that involved the participation of four (4) schools in the Division of Cavite, with their ten (10) school heads, thirty-eight (38) teachers, and one hundred thirty-four (134) senior students. The validated survey instrument containing 50 questions were used and covered assigned seven (7) areas of school management namely the (1) vision-mission-goals, (2) curriculum and instructional management, (3) financial and budgeting management, (4) school plant and facilities, (5) student services management, (6) community relations management, and (7) management of school improvement plan. The findings and results of the study revealed school heads exhibited very satisfactory level in performing their managerial functions in all management areas identified. It also revealed that there were significant differences in the managerial performance of school heads in the areas of vision-mission-goals, financial and budgeting, physical plant and facilities, community relations and management of school improvement plan. The data on the weaknesses of school heads in performing managerial functions in identified areas of school management provided the basis in proposing an enhancement plan that may be used in improving their functions and in providing a key to more development programs for school heads in the division. Key Words: School Heads, Managerial Performance, Managers, Management, Educational Leaders.
