Guided by the Philippine Professional Standards for School Heads (PPSSH), the research explored five key domains: Leading Strategically, Managing School Operations and Resources, Focusing on Teaching and Learning, Developing Self and Others, and Building Connections. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed, involving 12 school heads and 114 purposively selected teachers to assess leadership practices and performance outcomes based on the Office and Individual Performance Commitment Review Forms (OPCRF and IPCRF). Findings revealed that school heads were generally mature, well-educated professionals with 1–4 years in their current leadership roles, while the teaching staff was predominantly younger and still pursuing advanced studies. Both groups were primarily assigned to rural, medium-sized schools. School heads rated themselves highly across all leadership domains, particularly in strategic and operational management. However, teacher assessments reflected lower ratings, citing gaps in inclusivity, technological integration, and instructional support. Performance evaluations showed all participants met or exceeded institutional expectations, with “Very Satisfactory” to “Outstanding” ratings. Statistical analysis indicated significant differences in leadership dynamism based on age and income, suggesting that experience and financial stability contribute to leadership effectiveness. However, correlation results revealed no strong or statistically significant relationship between leadership dynamism and school effectiveness, pointing to other factors—such as organizational culture or systemic structures—as potential influencers. The study concluded that while school leadership is generally effective, there exists a perceptual disconnect between school heads and teachers. Recommendations include enhancing leadership development programs, promoting participatory leadership, broadening school performance metrics, and conducting further research across varied educational contexts to deepen understanding and inform policy improvements.
