Abstract:

Quality education is the product of the collective contributions of several factors including the quality of school leaders. Leadership competence and behavioral competence are qualities that school heads should possess to ensure success in school operations and instructional supervision. This descriptive-survey research determined the core behavioral competence leadership competence and individual work performance of school heads in public secondary schools of Eastern Visayas as this relates to the school –based management level of the schools. The data gathered from a survey questionnaire were subjected to statistical analyses. The Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (Pearson r), eta correlation, point bi-serial method and t- test were used to test the null hypotheses formulated in this study. Based on the data gathered and the results of the analysis and interpretation, the findings of this study reveal that most school heads are in their middle age, females and married. Likewise, most of them have master’s degree, experienced in teaching experience and highly experienced in administration, and have sufficient trainings in terms of administrative and supervisory trainings attended. The schools’ SBM performance will improve if school heads consistently manifest leadership competence in leading people, people performance management and people development.
