Description
Summary:The study was an attempt to get an insight into the leadership behavior of secondary school principals as perceived by their teachers in terms of educational management and human relations leadership behavior skills. The main purpose of the study was to discover the principals' leadership behavior strengths and weaknesses, and to propose some measures of strengthening the weaknesses. The subjects of the study were 317 teachers who evaluated a number of principals (11): six of which were in non-sectarian (non-Catholic) secondary schools, and five were sectarian (Catholic) secondary schools in the fourth district of Metro Manila. A questionnaire, which was originally constructed, was the main instrument used and supplemented by an interview. The data gathered from the questionnaire were then tabulated in terms of frequencies and percentages for five categories. The percentage distribution, the Chi-square, the means and the t-test, gave a picture of the strong and weak leadership behaviors in the areas of educational management and human relations.
