Abstract

A positive school climate and excellent leadership are essential to promote holistic school administration and high-quality education. Researchers wanted to find out how school leaders' leadership styles affect the perception of students in a high-quality educational environment using a mixed-method research design. A total of 1018 people participated in this survey, including 907 students and 111 school officials from 24 different schools. The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) was used to determine the most common le­adership style among school heads. The SCAI Secondary General Version was used to assess students' perceptions of the school climate level. Also, four school principals participated in one-on-one interviews on how their leader­ship styles changed during the pandemic. All aspects of school climate, includ­ing community relations, student interactions, learning and assessment, physical appearance, discipline environment, attitude, and culture, had high levels of perceived school climate. Results show that transformational leadership, con­tingent reward, management by exception, and inspirational motivation are the most prevalent styles of leadership, while laissez-faire, idealized influence, and intellectual stimulation are the least prevalent. Only two out of forty-two (42) correlations between school atmosphere and leadership style were significant. Student interactions and idealized influence are also included in this cate­gory. School administrators and teachers need to understand the level of trans­formational leadership and the school climate to create the best school environ­ment, which will improve the quality of teaching and learning and, in the end, school performance.

Abstract

This study explored the impact of transitioning from distance learning modality to limited in-person classes to students in a higher education institution in the Philippines had caused psychological impact to working students in a tertiary institution. Ten working students were chosen purposively to participate in this phenomenological study. They were breadwinners in their families and claimed they were psychologically impacted by the transitions brought about by the pandemic because of the emotional distress and anxiety. The data was gathered through interviews with a validated interview guide from field experts and was analyzed using thematic analysis. Researchers also considered ethical considerations in conducting research for participants. The results revealed that participants experienced varied impacts, particularly in adjusting their daily routines, facing technological and financial challenges, managing stress in physical, psychological, and mental aspects, and adapting to socialization and communication changes. Despite these challenges, they expressed increased adaptability and resilience, maintaining positive attitudes and aspirations to continue learning. Effective time management, adjustments to learning modalities, and clear policies were identified as key factors that could have eased their transition. The study recommends that students should fully commit to balancing both work and study. Higher education institutions (HEIs) can support them by providing psychological assistance, flexible learning options, academic guidance, wellness programs, financial aid, and partnerships with local businesses to help them sustain their education while working.

Abstract

The contents of the Senate Bill 956, better known as the Teachers' Protection Policy Act was examined and analyzed based on the following themes, namely, support mechanisms for public school teachers and personnel, enhanced protection of public-school teachers and personnel, and training on guidelines and classroom discipline for public school teachers and personnel. According to the Republic Act, 4670 or the Magna Carta for Public School Teachers, the appropriateness of the act was checked to see how much help this bill can provide to the public-school teachers in the Philippines in terms of classroom discipline and classroom management. The bill poses excellent benefits to the public-school teachers. However, the Department of Education must identify which disciplinary acts or strategies are not categorized as child abuse and that there should be centralized policy implementations, seminars, and training to avoid misinterpretations and discipline avoidance among teachers. This paper hopes to contribute to a research-based, logical, and relevant drafting of HR policies and programs to support and protect the teachers as mandated in the Magna Carta for Public School teachers and SB 956. This study employed a qualitative method using resources available online.
