Towards the Development of a Standardized Quality Management Framework for Rogationist Schools in the Philippines: A Mixed Methods Study

This study employed a mixed methods research design and multiple case study approach to develop a standardized quality management framework for Rogationist schools in the Philippines. With a focus on exploring complex real-life situations, the multiple case study method allows for an in-depth analysis of diverse educational institutions within the cultural and administrative context of the country. The mixed methods nature of the study integrates quantitative and qualitative data collection techniques effectively into the multiple case study approach. Through document analysis, interviews, surveys, and the Delphi method, data is gathered from various stakeholders including top management, school heads, teachers, non-academic staff, and top administrators. The findings revealed both facilitating and restraining factors influencing quality management practices in Rogationist schools. While the schools demonstrate a commitment to excellence and holistic development, challenges such as financial constraints, infrastructure deficiencies, and assessment limitations are identified. Recommendations are provided to address these gaps, including establishing clear guidelines for quality assurance practices, enhancing institutional support, and improving staff training programs. Overall, this study contributes to the development of a comprehensive and contextually relevant quality management framework tailored to Rogationist schools in the Philippines, promoting continuous improvement and excellence in education.
