Leadership Of School Heads and Organizational Commitment as Determinants of Teacher Performance In Private Elementary Schools In Davao City

This study was proposed to determine the multiple regression model of the teacher's performance as influenced by the leadership of school heads and the organizational commitment of private teachers. This study incorporates a non-experimental quantitative research design. A total of 325 private school teachers in Davao City were surveyed. The collected data using adapted survey questionnaires were analyzed using mean, Pearson, product-moment correlation coefficient, and regression. The study's findings revealed that the leadership level of school heads, organizational commitment, and teacher performance were very high. Also, there was a significant correlation between the leadership of school heads and teachers' performance and organizational commitment, and teachers' performance in all the measures was less than the significant alpha value. Further, the result shows a significant influence of the two independent variables, namely leadership of school heads and organizational commitment towards the dependent variable, teacher's performance. This study contributes to policy makers, school heads, and educators being capable and equipped with the appropriate skills to cultivate children.
