DESCRIPTION: INSTRUCTIONAL LEADERSHIP

Q1: LEADERSHIP IS AN ESSENTIAL TENET IN A SMOOTH SAILING EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM AND INSTITUTIONAL
OPERATION.
1.1 WHAT LEADERSHIP STYLE DO YOU THINK IS THE MOST APPROPRIATE TO OUR PRESENT EDUCATIONAL
STATUS? JUSTIFY YOUR POINTS.
1.2 WHAT LEADERSHIP MODEL IS APPLIED IN YOUR INSTITUTION AT PRESENT? ASSESS ITS EFFECTIVENESS
IN THE LIGHT OF FACULTY DEVELOPMENT, LEARNING ADVANCEMENT, ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT,
STUDENT WELFARE, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT, INSTITUTIONAL RESOURCE ENRICHMENT, AND THE
REALIZATION OF YOUR INSTITUTIONAL GOALS AND OBJECTIVES?
1.3 AS FUTURE LEADER, WHAT LEADERSHIP STYLE WILL YOU IMBIBE AND LIVE WITHIN YOUR WOULD-BE
INSTITUTION? WHAT POSSIBLE PROBLEMS DO YOU ANTICIPATE TO ARISE? AND HOW ARE YOU GOING
TO RESOLVE THESE WITH THE KIND OF LEADERSHIP FORMATION YOU WILL BE THROUGH WITH? THEN,
WHAT WILL BE THE DETERMINING RESULT OR OUTCOME WILL IT BRING TO YOUR INSTITUTION THAT
WOULD DETERMINE YOUR WORTH AS A LEADER AND AS A REFLECTION OF YOUR MANAGEMENT SKILL
AND CAPABILITY?

A1.1 I THINK THE MOST APPROPRIATE LEADERSHIP STYLE IN OUR PRESENT EDUCATIONAL STATUS IS THE
DEMOCRATIC STYLE, BECAUSE IT ALLOWS LOWER-LEVEL EMPLOYEES TO EXERCISE AUTHORITY THEY'LL NEED TO
USE WISELY IN FUTURE POSITIONS THEY MIGHT HOLD. THE LEADER MAKES DECISIONS BASED ON THE INPUT OF
EACH TEAM MEMBER. ALTHOUGH HE OR SHE MAKES THE FINAL CALL, EACH EMPLOYEE HAS AN EQUAL SAY ON
A PROJECT'S DIRECTION.
A1.2 IN OUR SCHOOL, I COULD SAY THAT WE HAVE A TRANSFORMATIONAL AND DEMOCRATIC LEADER. MY SCHOOL
HEAD ALWAYS INSPIRES US TO GO OUTSIDE THE BOX AND EXPLORE THE WORLD. SHE MOTIVATES US TO DO
NOT FEAR OF CHANGE AND TO LOOK FOR WAYS TO INNOVATE OUR WAY OF TEACHING. SHE ALSO ENCOURAGE
EVERYONE TO SPEAK OUR MIND ESPECIALLY IF WE ARE IN THE MEETING. SHE MAKES SURE THAT EVERYONE IS
PARTICIPATING AND EVERYONE IS GIVEN AN EQUAL TREATMENT.
A1.3 AS A FUTURE LEADER, I THINK I WANT TO APPLY BEING DEMOCRATIC AND TRANSFORMATIONAL AND A LITTLE
BIT OF AUTOCRATIC. SOMETIMES IT'S ABUSED WHEN THE SCHOOL HEAD IS TOO KIND. IT IS ALSO NECESSARY TO
RESTRICT IN SOME WAY SO THAT OUR TEACHERS CAN PERFORM THEIR DUTIES APPROPRIATELY. THERE ARE
THINGS THAT CANNOT BE AGREED UPON BUT FOR ME IT NEEDS TO BE DISCUSSED PROPERLY AND STILL THE
FINAL SAY IS STILL WITH THE PRINCIPAL. WHEN AN INSTITUTION IS EFFECTIVELY ORGANIZED, ITS EMPLOYEES
CAN WORK EFFICIENTLY.
Q2: MANAGERS NEED SYSTEMATIC PLANNING IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE WHAT ARE EMBODIED IN THE VISION AND
MISSION OF AN INSTITUTION THEREBY WHAT IS ACTUALLY DONE IS USUALLY REFLECTED IN ITS PROGRAMS AND
ACTIVITIES. GIVING THE SCENARIO, WRITE AN ASSESSMENT OF YOUR INSTITUTION’S IMAGE AND STATUS IN
TERMS OF ITS EDUCATIONAL EMBODIMENT.

A2: OUR SCHOOL IS ONE OF THE BEST SCHOOL IN TAGAYTAY AND SOMETIMES, WE ARE ALSO INCLUDED AS ONE OF
THE TOP 10 BEST SCHOOLS IN THE PHILIPPINES. WE HAVE FOUR CURRICULA WHEREIN THE STUDENTS CAN
CHOOSE WHAT’S BEST FIT TO THEIR SKILLS, BUT OF COURSE BEFORE THEY CAN ENROLL 0N THE PROGRAM THAT
THEY WANT THEY NEED TO PASS THE EXAM. OUR SCHOOL WON LOTS OF COMPETITION NOT ONLY IN THE
PHILIPPINES BUT ALSO WITH OTHER COUNTRIES ESPECIALLY OUR ROBOTICS TEAM.
Q3: AN EDUCATIONAL LEADER IN ORDER TO EFFECTIVELY PERFORM HIS FUNCTIONS HE MUST BE A RESOURCE
PROVIDER, AND INSTRUCTIONAL RESOURCE, A COMMUNICATOR AND AN ADMINISTRATOR WITH VISIBLE
PRESENCE. IDENTIFY AND BRIEFLY DISCUSS AT LEAST FOUR COMPETENCIES OF AN ADMINISTRATOR AS AN
INSTRUCTIONAL RESOURCE.
A3: AN ADMINISTRATOR SHOULD BE GOOD IN COACHING AND MENTORING. HE/SHE VALUES THE IMPORTANCE OF
THEIR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE STUDENTS. GUIDE COLLEAGUES
TO MAKE THEIR OWN PROFESSIONAL DECISIONS BY ASKING APPROPRIATE QUESTIONS AND ENCOURAGING
REFLECTION. FOSTER THE DEVELOPMENT OF COLLEAGUES AND VALUE THEIR SKILLS AND ABILITIES. THE SCHOOL
LEADER GUIDES, MONITORS AND SUPERVISES EFFECTIVE CURRICULUM INTEGRATION AND INNOVATIVE
APPLICATION OF INSTRUCTION AND ASSESSMENT THROUGH TEACHING, LEARNING, AND LEADING. PROVIDES
CONCEPTUAL GUIDANCE FOR TEACHERS REGARDING EFFECTIVE CLASSROOM PRACTICE. SECOND AN
ADMINISTRATOR SHOULD POSSESS MANAGERIAL LEADERSHIP. IT IS ESSENTIAL FOR SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS
WHO NEED TO LEAD ACADEMIC AND SUPPORT STAFF TO MEET THE GOVERNMENT’S VISION AND MISSION AS
WELL AS THE MOE’S POLICIES. ESTABLISHING A STRONG COLLABORATION AMONG ACADEMIC AND
ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF WITHIN THE SCHOOL CAN HELP SUSTAIN THE SCHOOL GOALS. NEXT, AN
ADMINISTRATOR MUST BE EQUIPPED WITH STRATEGIC THINKING, RESPONDS TO THE QUESTION OF WHAT WE
OUGHT TO BE DOING, AND WHY, AND FOCUSSES ON THE MEANS TO ADAPT – A WAY TO SAY THAT STRATEGIC
THINKING AND INNOVATION IS THE WAY FORWARD. ... ADAPTABILITY IS CRITICAL WHEN “CROSSING THE
CHASM” AND INTRODUCING A DISCONTINUOUS INNOVATION INTO THE MARKET. LASTLY, AN ADMINISTRATOR
SHOULD POSSESS HIGH MORAL AND ETHICS. SINCE ADMINISTRATORS ARE IN CHARGE OF SEVERAL HIGH-LEVEL
RESPONSIBILITIES TO KEEP THE ORGANIZATION FUNCTIONING WELL, IT'S ESSENTIAL FOR THEM TO HAVE HIGH
MORALS AND ETHICS. MANY EMPLOYEES CONSIDER ADMINISTRATORS AS TRUSTED SOURCES WHO CARE
ABOUT THE SUCCESS OF THE ORGANIZATION. THEY USE THEIR ETHICS TO CAREFULLY COMPLETE TASKS LIKE
MANAGING BUDGETS, STORING CONFIDENTIAL FILES OR ACCESSING EMPLOYEES' PERSONAL INFORMATION TO
BOOK TRAVEL ARRANGEMENTS.
Q4: DIAGNOSIS IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT AND CURRICULUM REVISION. THUS, IN
ORDER TO KEEP THE CURRICULUM IN TUNE WITH THE NEEDS OF TIME AND OF STUDENTS, AND TO HELP
DETERMINE WHICH OBJECTIVES TO STRESS, DIAGNOSIS SHOULD BE A CONTINUOUS PART OF ONGOING
CURRICULUM AND TEACHING. ON THIS PARTICULAR PREMISE, HOW WOULD YOU DIFFERENTIATE DIAGNOSIS
OF ACHIEVEMENT FROM DIAGNOSIS OF STUDENTS AS LEARNERS? ILLUSTRATE THIS BY CITING CONCRETE
EXAMPLES.
A4: DIAGNOSIS OF ACHIEVEMENTS IS DETERMINING HOW WELL THE STUDENTS HAVE ACHIEVED IMPORTANT
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES. IT CAN BE DETERMINED HOW WELL STUDENTS HAVE ACHIEVED IMPORTANT
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES. INFORMATION DERIVED FROM DIAGNOSIS OF ACHIEVEMENT IS USED TO ESTABLISH
STANDARDS AND TO LOCATE THE CAUSES OF WEAKNESSES & STRENGTHS IN THE ATTAINMENT OF STUDENTS.
FOR EXAMPLE, WE GAVE THE STUDENTS AN ASSESSMENT AND THEY ALL PASSED THE EXAM, IT MEANS THAT
THE OBJECTIVE OF THAT ASSESSMENT WAS ATTAINED. WHILE IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF THE LEARNERS THE
CURRICULUM SHOULD BE DEVELOPED TO ENHANCE THE DESIRABLE UNIQUENESS OF INDIVIDUALS. IT AIMS TO
DEVELOP THEIR KNOWLEDGE, HABITS, SKILLS, ABILITIES, & ATTRIBUTES. , OUR STUDENTS HAVE DIFFERENT
LEARNING STYLES, SO WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THEIR DIVERSITY. THAT’S WHY IN OUR LESSON PLAN WE ALSO
INCLUDE DIFFERENTIATED TASK SO THAT EVERYONE CAN PARTICIPATE.
Q5: ONE OF THE CONCERNS OF EDUCATION IS IMPROVING THE DELIVERY OF BASIC EDUCATION SERVICES AND
ENHANCING EFFECTIVENESS AND EFFICIENCY. EXPLAIN AND ILLUSTRATE THIS GIVEN DOGMA BY CITING
SPECIFIC EXAMPLES.
A5: INSTRUCTIONAL LEADERSHIP FRAMEWORK ENSURE THAT EVERY SCHOOL HAS THE STRATEGY AND TOOLS TO
CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVE INSTRUCTION AND PROVIDE OUR STUDENTS WITH THE RIGOROUS LEARNING
EXPERIENCES THEY ALL DESERVE. FIRST, THE SCHOOL SHOULD HAVE A CLEAR MISSION AND VISION. DEFINE THE
SCHOOLS’ GOALS AND OBJECTIVE AND IT SHOULD BE APPLY. THEN THE SCHOOL SHOULD PROMOTE A POSITIVE
SCHOOL CLIMATE AND IT SHOULD BE APPLY. EVERY EMPLOYEE CAN WORK EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY IF
THERE IS A HARMONIOUS RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THEM. NOT ONLY INSIDE THE SCHOOL PREMISE BUT ALSO
WE SHOULD HAVE A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH COMMUNITY ESPECIALLY WITH OUR STAKEHOLDERS. A GOOD
LEADER SHOULD MANAGE, SUPERVISE THE CURRICULUM INSTRUCTION. HE/SHE SHOULD MANAGE THE
CURRICULUM, IF IT IS EFFECTIVE OR STILL NECESSARY FIR THE LEARNERS. THE MAIN FOCUS OF A GOOD LEADER
SHOULD BE WITH THE LEARNERS. HE/SHE SHOULD SUPERVISE THE INSTRUCTION, THAT’S WHY IT IS IMPORTANT
THAT THE SCHOOL HEAD SHOULD HAVE CONSTANT OBSERVATION WITH HER/HIS TEACHERS. HE/SHE SHOULD
PROVIDE OBJECTIVE FEEDBACK TO TEACHERS, GIVE DIAGNOSE AND SOLVE TEACHING PROBLEMS, TO HELP
TEACHERS DEVELOP THEIR STRATEGIES AND SKILLS, TO EVALUATE TEACHERS FOR PROMOTIONS OR
APPOINTMENTS, AND TO HELP TEACHERS MAINTAIN A POSITIVE ATTITUDE
