Abstract:
Instructional leadership entails developing teachers' capabilities and paying attention to administrative things such as budgeting, building maintenance, and school nutritional programs. This degree of administrative support allows principals to concentrate their energy and time on academic functioning. The primary objective of the researcher was to analyze the influence of school principals' instructional leadership practices on teachers' organizational commitment. The respondents of this study consisted of 184 teachers in District 2 Tondo Manila in the Schools Division of Manila during the school year 2021-2022. This study utilized the quantitative descriptive-correlational method of research. The level of instructional leadership of the principals was generally to assessed to be of a great extent. In contrast, the level of teachers' organizational commitment in terms of normative commitment was revealed as highly committed - indicative of the teachers' capabilities to bring out the desired outcomes of the school as an organization and commitment to engagement and learning process. Instructional leadership practices do not exert a significant combined influence on teachers' organizational commitment, but the Beta values show that there is still a relationship between the two variables.
