The Influence of Managerial Competencies and School Culture among Educators in Selected Primary Schools in Singapore

The development and cultivation of a nation's culture are key objectives of education. This study aims to explore the influence of managerial competencies and school culture among educators in selected primary schools in Singapore. Effective managerial competencies play a vital role in curriculum development, instruction, and the teaching and learning process, which are critical to achieving educational goals. The study utilizes a descriptive correlational research design, employing two standardized instruments to assess managerial competencies and school culture. Data will be analyzed using mean, frequency distributions, and Pearson correlation. The primary instrument used is the Managerial and School Culture Assessment Questionnaire. Findings reveal that the respondents consistently demonstrate exemplary performance in managerial competencies across all indicators. Similarly, school culture assessments indicate a consistently high level of performance among educators. These results highlight the significant relationship between managerial competencies and a positive school culture in enhancing educational outcomes. The study recommends exploring innovative management skills beyond the current competencies reviewed to further support the continuous development of managerial expertise and school culture in primary education.
