THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PROMOTION SYSTEM AS
PERCEIVED BY PUBLIC ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
ADMINISTRATORS (Unpublished master’s thesis, Bukidnon
State College, City of Malaybalay, March 19, 2001).
This study was an attempt at surveying the general perception of public
elementary school administrators on the effectiveness of the promotion used by
the DECS particularly in the division of Gingoog City. The entire population of
elementary school administrators was used as a parameter. Data gathered were
delimited to the responses of 63 public elementary school administrators of the
four school districts in the Division of Gingoog City. Descriptive research was used,
utilizing a researcher-made Likert-type questionare.
This study sought to determine the perception of the school administrators
On the effectiveness of the promotion system in the following components:
Performance, outstanding accomplishments, relevant experience and specialized
Training, physical characteristics and personality traits, and potential. Likewise,
It also aimed at determining if there is a difference in their perceptions when
The administrators were grouped according to age, position level, training
Attended and administrative experience.
The result of the data analysis is as follows:
1. Public elementary school administrators perceived the promotion system
as effective in terms of the criteria for promotion .
Based on the mean scores, the following criteria are ranked as follows:
1) Physical characteristics and personality traits, 2) performance, 3) potential
Human relations, 4) relevant experience, 5) potential decisiveness,
6) potential stress tolerance, 8) outstanding accomplishment and pre-and
Post-ranking impressions got the lowest mean in all categories of the categories
of the criteria which indicates doubt in the implementation of the criteria for
promotion.
Conclusions
Based on the findings of this study, the following conclusions were
Drawn:
Generally, all public elementary school administrators have trust
Confidence in the criteria used as basis for promotion. It can be
Concluded that the established mechanism for career advancement
Is credible and valid to most of the school administrators.
However, the implementation needs to be improved in view of the
Low ratings given to procedural and implementational situations.
The age, designation, length of service and training of school
Administrators do not influence much their perception of the
Effectiveness of the promotion system. However, across all
Subgroupings, there always hang a cloud of doubt on the
Implementation process.
Recommendations
On the basis of the foregoing findings and conclusion, the
Following are recommended:
1. To established and strengthen the trust and confidence in the
Implementation of the criteria for promotion, transparency should be
Emphasized during the ranking. From the publicity of vacant positions,
To the assessment of documents, to the publication of the result of
Ranking to the issuance of appointment for the next position,
Everything should be open to public scrutiny.
2. The DECS, through its chairman of the ranking committee,
Should explain the criteria for promotion not only to those who apply
For ranking but to all teachers so everybody will know whether or nor
They have the necessary qualifications to join the competition.
3. Public elementary school administrators should be more vocal
In expressing their views on the implementation of the criteria for
Promotion so that needed reforms can be made if ever there are
Deviation from the normal course
4. As much as possible, the schools division should follow the
Ranklist in issuing appointments to newly promoted school
Administrators to avoid disenchantment with the promotion system.
5. Periodic session with all teachers in every district should be
Instituted to discuss the criteria for promotion and for brainstorming
For possible improvement in the system of promotion.
