Abstract
This study examines the impact of transformational leadership on student achievement in Philippine schools. Using a quantitative research design, the study investigates the relationship between leadership strategies and student performance by surveying 150 school leaders and 300 teachers across multiple educational institutions. The findings suggest that transformational leadership, characterized by inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration, significantly influences student academic outcomes. The study contributes to the understanding of effective leadership practices that drive school improvement. The results emphasize the role of school leaders in shaping a positive school climate that fosters academic success.
