<![CDATA[This study addresses the lack of understanding regarding the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI), teaching performance, and institutional climate (IC) in basic education. As a solution, the study proposes evaluating and strengthening teachers’ EI to enhance both their performance and the school environment. Using a quantitative, non-experimental, correlational design, the research analyzed a randomly selected sample of 145 teachers. Validated questionnaires measured dimensions such as self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills, as well as teaching preparation and IC. The results reveal significant positive correlations between EI and IC (r=0.85) and between teaching performance and IC (r=0.78). This suggests that higher EI not only improves teaching effectiveness but also fosters a positive institutional environment. The study concludes that enhancing teachers’ EI can optimize both their performance and institutional dynamics, contributing to higher-quality education. The findings support the implementation of EI training programs as a key strategy to improve teaching performance and the school climate (SC).]]>
