However, the results implied that school leaders with instructional leadership style manifest behavior that is expected by the teachers and make them work with energy, enthusiasm, commitment and dedication at work. Despite of this result, as for the recommendations, school heads may continue lead their teachers and do what is best for teachers and student’s welfare.
