Since there is significant relationship in views of school teachers in terms of Planning component of managerial function performed by their school principals and school effectiveness, we can say that planning component of managerial function performed by Principals affects the school effectiveness moderately.

• The managerial function of Planning performed by Principals of CBSE board is better than SSC board school principals.

• The School Effectiveness of CBSE board is better than SSC board schools.

• There is significant relationship in views of school teachers in terms of Planning component of managerial function performed by their school principals and School Effectiveness; we can say that Planning component of managerial function performed by Principals moderately affects the school effectiveness.

 

Present study clearly suggests that there is positive and significant relationship between managerial function of Planning performed by school principals and School Effectiveness . From these observations, it can be concluded that school principals play a significant role .

Principals of SSC board schools need to reflect on their managerial function of Planning and have to use participatory method so that overall functioning of school have significant impact on the school effectiveness.

As this research suggests that there is significant relationship between managerial function of planning performed by school principals on school effectiveness, the principals of both the boards need to improve their managerial roles so that such improved actions can reflect on the overall effectiveness of schools endeavors.
