MANAGEMENT PERFORMANCE OF PUBLIC SECONDARY SCHOOL
ADMINISTRATORS IN THEIR CORE FUNCTIONS
JOSEPHINE O. PARINAS

This study determined the level of management performance of public secondary school
administrators in the six (6) divisions of Pangasinan, SY 2015-2016. Specifically, it sought to
determine the following: profile of the public school administrators in terms of highest educational
attainment, length of service as school administrator, number of teachers supervised, number
of relevant trainings, submission of MOOE liquidation report, NAT MPS, number of dropouts and
personality type; the levels of management of public school administrators along supervisory
and administrative functions; the significant differences between the levels of management of
public school administrators along supervisory and administrative functions across their profile
variables and the significant relationships between the levels of management of public school
administrators along supervisory and administrative functions and their profile variables.
Majority of the respondents have finished their MA Academic Requirement, have more
than 10 years as school administrator, have 21 or more number of teachers supervised, have
attended more than 7 relevant trainings in the division level, with NAT Overall MPS of average
mastery, have 1-3 number of dropouts and have type A personality. The levels of performance
of public secondary school administrators in terms of their supervisory functions obtained a
Very Satisfactory transmuted rating while their administrative functions obtained a transmuted
equivalent rating of Very Satisfactory. The respondents’ school administrators have adequate
educational qualifications thereby making them effective in their supervisory and administrative
functions. The management performance of public secondary school administrators is influenced
by their very satisfactory supervisory and administrative functions. The respondents’ school
administrators are comparable in their level of management performance when compared across
their profile variables except in the number of teachers supervised and the number of dropouts.
The profile variables of the respondents except the number of teachers supervised, the number
of dropouts and personality type do not affect their levels of management performance.
The following recommendations are hereby presented: DepEd in joint partnership with
the Graduate School and the Regional/Division should provide opportunities for scholarship
for deserving Public Secondary School Administrators. The very satisfactory supervisory
and administrative functions of school administrators should be sustained and maintained.
More appropriate and relevant variables should be explored to better determine the level of
management performance of public secondary school administrators. The PSSA should exert
more effort to upgrade their supervisory and administrative performance. In-service trainings for
PSSA on enhancing their levels of performance in their core management functions should be
developed and implemented.
