The result of the study shows that the highest score was on dimensions ‘Developing and Enforcing Academic Standards’ with mean 4.290 and standard deviation 0.814. It was respectively followed by ‘Providing Incentives for Learning’ mean 4.060 and standard deviation 0.904; ‘Protecting Instructional Time’ mean 3.855 and standard deviation 0.963 and ‘Providing Incentives for Teachers’ mean 3.607 and standard deviation 1.095. Meanwhile, the two best items practiced by the principals was ‘Use assemblies to honor students for their academic work and/or behavior in classroom’ mean 4.39 and ‘Encourage teachers to start class on time and teach to the end of the period’ mean 4.38.
