Discipline: Education

Adequate facilities are an essential factor for student learning. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of School Facilities to the Teaching-Learning Environment of the Cluster-A Schools of the Diocese of Butuan. The study utilized the descriptive survey method of research. A questionnaire was used as the primary instrument for data gathering. The respondents of the study were the Grade 9 and Grade 10 students, and the teachers of the Grade 9 and 10 of the Cluster A Schools of the Diocese of Butuan. Findings revealed that the presence of school facilities as rated by the teachers and students has motivated them and made them feel happy and satisfied with the knowledge that they have gained through the utilization of the school facilities. The findings a firm the expectancy-value theory which assumes that people are motivated to do an activity if it is perceived to be linked to the satisfaction of personal needs and if there is a positive expectancy for success (Deci & Ryan, 2014). It was recommended that Seminar –Workshops should be conducted for teachers on the integration of technology as part of their teaching strategies to enhance students’ motivation.

MANAGING SCHOOL OPERATIONS AND RESOURCES IN THE NEW NORMAL AND PERFORMANCE OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN ONE SCHOOL DIVISION IN THE PHILIPPINES

2021, IOER International Multidisciplinary Research Journal

All organizations require effective and efficient management. Being effective is evident if one is doing a certain task appropriately, while efficiency is observed if the task is done with accuracy. It is through management that the vision, mission, and goals of an organization are realized through the efforts of those people who walk in one direction to attain the desired goal. In this time of uncertainty where everything must stop, the competencies of the school leaders in management need to be strengthened to ensure better school performance. The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a link between school leaders' abilities to manage school operations and resources and the performance of public schools in the Schools Division of Laguna. To evaluate the relationship between the independent and dependent variables, the descriptive-correlational study design was used, and employed statistical methods such as Pearson r, Chi-square, Spearman rho correlational analysis, and multiple linear regression were used. Findings revealed that there is a significant relationship between the level of management competencies of school heads and the school's performance in terms of quality and efficiency. All the given competencies in managing school operations and resources, such as record management, financial management, school facilities and equipment, staff management, school safety for disaster preparedness, mitigation and resiliency, and management of emerging opportunities have a significant impact on the school's quality and efficiency. Further, the management competencies of school heads in terms of management of staff singly and significantly predict the quality and efficiency of the school. Thus, it was recommended to conduct an annual Induction Program for all new school heads to provide them salient information about managing the school operations and resources; and give the school heads technical assistance through the conduct of training, workshop, coaching, and mentoring; include topics in records management and school facilities in the professional development programs of SDO Laguna and conduct other related research in the future.

School heads from the Philippines and around the globe are currently affronted by unexpected levels of adversities. They are facing threats, and which have been perennial to many, if not all, school organizations. This study assessed the relationship between the school heads' leadership practices, administrative disposition, and readiness of the public schools among school principals in the City Schools Divisions in Laguna for the school year 2020-2021. Two hundred five (205) public school principals were the respondents of the study. The researcher utilized the descriptive-correlational research design and self-made questionnaire to assess and measure the variables under study. The statistical tools used to analyze the data gathered were Mean, standard deviation, Pearson r and Multiple Linear Regression Analysis. Findings revealed that the school heads' leadership practices and the administrative disposition were highly practiced during the new normal in the education syste...

The role of an instructional leader differs from that of a traditional school administrator in several meaningful ways: whereas the conventional head of school spends the majority of his/her time dealing strictly with administrative duties, the head of school who is an instructional leader is charged with redefining his/her role to become the primary learner in a community striving for excellence in education. As such, it becomes the head of the school's responsibility to work with teachers to manage the instructional program. Utilizing a descriptive research design, this study involved all the school heads of the 17 elementary schools of Narra del Norte district, Narra, Palawan. Data were gathered through an adopted survey questionnaire administered by the researchers. More than half of the school heads were females, had ages between 46 to 50, were married and had units in master's degrees. They also had 10 or fewer teachers being supervised and had 1 to 10 years of experience as school heads. It was found that the school heads' level of instructional competencies is very competent, and their management capabilities are highly effective. Results of the study imply that instruction and support provided to teachers were given much priority with the aim of strengthening the school's instructional goals and objectives. More so, the management behaviors and functions are being performed by the school heads in a very satisfactory manner.

This study made used of the descriptive-survey to gather profile of the public school heads in the elementary and secondary public schools and their respective school related problems. Questionnaire was used to collect the needed data. The questionnaire consists of two parts. The first part asked about the personal and professional data of the participants and the last part gathered the needs and problems met by school heads in the management of their respective schools. The findings reveal that (1)the administrators in the elementary and secondary schools possess the necessary qualifications required by their positions but lack the organizational skills required of producing effective schools to achieve quality education, (2) the administrators have attended staff development trainings and conferences yet need to enroll in graduate programs and/or to attend trainings to enhance their leadership, administrative and supervisory capabilities, and (3) the administrators face school related problems they need to resolve to make their schools effective. The following recommendations are offered (1) School heads should endeavour to upgrade themselves in the profession by finishing their doctorate degrees, (2) School heads should plan and initiate resource generating activities to increase finances of the school thus, more programs and projects would be implemented, and (3) Continuous attendance to leadership seminars and trainings should be aimed by school heads to improve further their management skills and competence.

The management styles, roles, and functions of the school administrators, as they partner with their teachers in the educational process, are of such importance that it would be unwise to ignore the mechanism that forms the basis of the different assessment and/or judgment types. Articulating the levels of evaluation and assessment of the stakeholders provides the framework of this academic undertaking on the different contextual effects of the focus of the study. In particular, this study is descriptive, where two (2) major groups of respondents were used as the study's major participants. The respondents were seven (7) school administrators and 45 teachers of the North District of the selected national high schools in Cebu City, Cebu. These groups of respondents were purposively and conveniently chosen. Based on the findings, the following were derived: The school administrators concurred with their teachers' evaluation that implementing the management styles, roles, and functions was effective. There is a high level of difference in evaluating the management styles, roles, and functions of the school administrators since the obtained t-value is found in the rejection region, negating the research hypothesis raised in the study. The school administrators and teachers performed satisfactorily in all the managerial role areas and functions expected of them as they achieved the desired school performance. There was dominancy and consistency of significant relationships in the majority of areas of management styles, and as expected, issues and concerns emerged. Moreover, the proposed Recipe for Effective Management (R.E.M.) Model will further articulate and realize the goals of quality and excellence in education at the secondary level that redounds to effective and efficient school performance.

This descriptive study endeavored to determine the administrative and instructional leadership skills of school heads and its influence on school performance in the second district of Misamis Oriental, Philippines, during school year 2018-2019. It involved 132 elementary school administrators. In order to validate their selfassessment from the survey instrument, 380 random samples of teachers who were under those respective administrators were taken to assess the competence of their respective administrators. The analysis and interpretation of the data gathered were facilitated by frequency counts, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and Pearson r. The study found out that there is no significant relationship between the school heads' age, sex, work experience, and family monthly income and the school performance considering the teachers' performance, the learners' performance and their reading comprehension. However, there is a significant relationship between the school heads' designation and educational qualification, and school performance. Also, there is a significant effect between the school heads' administrative and instructional leadership skills and the schools' performance in terms of teachers' individual performance and students' achievement and their reading comprehension skills.

Global report reveals major gaps in menstrual health and hygiene in schools

NEW YORK, GENEVA , 28 May 2024 –  Around the world, menstrual health and hygiene needs are being overlooked due to limited access to information, education, products and services, as well as inadequate facilities and inequalities.

A new report, Progress on drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene in schools 2015–2023: special focus on menstrual health , launched by UNICEF and WHO on Menstrual Hygiene Day, analyses for the first time emerging national data on menstrual health and hygiene in schools globally.

Ten key facts from the report:

• Worldwide, only 2 out of 5 schools (39%) provide menstrual health education. This increases in secondary schools, with 84% of secondary schools in Central and Southern Asia, for example, providing menstrual education, compared to 34% in primary schools. 
• Less than 1 in 3 schools (31%) globally have bins for menstrual waste in girls’ toilets. This drops to 1 in 5 schools in Least Developed Countries (17%), and only 1 in 10 schools (or 11%) in sub-Saharan Africa. 
• Menstrual products are not always readily available, with many unable to afford them. In sub-Saharan Africa, for example, only 1 in 8 schools (12%) provide menstrual materials for free or for purchase. 
• In many countries, adolescent schoolgirls do not have access to a clean toilet or other dedicated private space to change menstrual products in school. 
• Unequal access to water and soap is an additional issue for millions of adolescent schoolgirls. Girls in urban areas, private schools and girls-only schools are more likely to have access to a private place with water and soap, highlighting inequalities even within the same country. 
• Millions around the world are unaware or unprepared for menstruation before having their first period. A study in Ethiopia, for example, reveals that less than half the surveyed girls knew about their periods before their first time. 
• Studies show that stigma related to menstruation remains widespread, with adolescents often feeling ashamed or unable to openly discuss the topic. This shame can affect their mental health and school attendance. 
• No national datasets were identified on how many teachers are trained to teach about menstrual hygiene, indicating a significant gap in educational support. Teachers play a crucial role in providing accurate information and creating a supportive environment, but without proper training they are ill-equipped to address students' needs. 
• Only 30 countries, over one-third in sub-Saharan Africa, have relevant data tracking at least one of the globally recommended priority indicators. This lack of data hampers efforts to understand and address the issues comprehensively. 
• While countries such as Zambia and the Philippines have shown marked improvements in making menstrual products and services available in schools, more needs to be done. Change is possible with targeted policies and investments. 

The report underscores the urgent need for global action to improve menstrual health and hygiene in schools. By addressing these issues, we can ensure that every schoolgirl can manage her menstruation with dignity, safety and confidence.

The new UNICEF-WHO report also includes progress on broader access to water, sanitation, and hygiene in schools. Today, 1 in 5 children (447 million) still lack basic drinking water services at their school, 1 in 5 lack basic sanitation services (427 million), and 1 in 3 children (646 million) don’t have access to basic hygiene services. Achieving the relevant Sustainable Development Goal by 2030 will require a two-fold increase in current rates of progress for basic drinking water, a two-fold increase for basic sanitation, and a four-fold increase for basic hygiene services.

Notes to Editors  

The WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP) report - Progress on drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene in schools 2000-2023: special focus on menstrual health – compiles data on global progress towards achieving universal access to safe drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), and for the first time includes a section on menstrual health. The emerging data measures global progress against several indicators which shed light on how many adolescent schoolgirls are not yet able to meet their menstrual needs across the world, and the efforts required until we are able to create a period-friendly world for all.

National data availability for menstrual health remains limited and indicator definitions vary making cross-country comparison difficult. Global and regional estimates are aggregates and should be treated as such.
