As the results revealed, the level of manifestation of critical performance roles of school heads in terms of relational, authentic, visionary, quality and service leadership were all highly manifested. There is no significant difference between the assessments of teachers and school heads on the critical performance roles. In terms of school achievement rate, none of the public schools has gotten a high level of school achievement rate. In terms of Teachers’ Performance, there have been 14% of the teachers who have outstanding level of performance. Meanwhile, 86% of the teachers’ performances fall in the very satisfactory level of performance.
