  Principal Accountability and Supervision: Strengthening School Governance and Educational Quality

  ×

  Principal accountability and supervision are critical components in strengthening school governance and improving educational quality. This study aims to analyze the accountability and supervision of school principals in supporting school governance and improving the quality of education. The method used is a literature study by reviewing scientific books, journal articles, and policy documents relevant to educational leadership. The results show that principal accountability is reflected in systematic program planning, transparent resource management, and structured performance reporting. Principal supervision has been shown to play a significant role in improving the quality of learning through observation, feedback, and teacher professional development. However, the study also found various obstacles such as limited managerial competence, a lack of evaluation instruments, and inconsistent monitoring that hamper the effectiveness of accountability and supervision. These findings emphasize the importance of strengthening school leadership capacity and developing more comprehensive evaluation instruments.

  The Influence of Principal Leadership on Teacher Performance

  ×

  This study aims to determine the influence of principal leadership on the performance of guidance and counseling teachers in secondary schools. A quantitative approach with a correlational design was employed, involving 37 guidance and counseling teachers as respondents. Data were collected using validated leadership and performance questionnaires and analyzed through descriptive statistics and simple linear regression. The findings show that the performance of guidance and counseling teachers falls within the good to very good category, while principal leadership is categorized as fair. The results indicate a significant positive effect of principal leadership on teacher performance. This finding confirms that better principal leadership leads to improved teacher performance in providing counseling services. These results highlight the critical role of effective principal leadership in improving the quality of school counseling services. Therefore, strengthening principals' managerial, supervisory, and motivational competencies is crucial to optimize teacher performance and support the achievement of school counseling goals.
