Abstract

The school principal serves as a vital link between the school administration and the instructors. For teachers to achieve a high level of performance, the school principal must provide the necessary assistance and oversight. As a result, the purpose of this study was to examine the influence of school principals' leadership behaviour on teacher job engagement as well as to assess variances in teacher views depending on individual characteristics. The study also looked into how teachers' gender and the style of school management interact with principle behaviour to influence how they rate school principal leadership. Teachers' impressions of their principals' leadership behaviour were assessed using the Leadership Behaviour Description Questionnaire (LBDQ), and teachers' work engagement was assessed using the Utrecht Work Engagement Tool, using a sample of 516 teachers from various secondary schools in Bangalore. Data research revealed that school administrators' leadership behaviour is a strong predictor of teachers' job engagement. The study also discovered substantial interaction effects between teachers' gender and kind of management, as well as their impact on the evaluation of administrators' leadership behaviour
