Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the extent of teacher's adaptive leadership approaches and the learners academic behavior and outcomes in the new normal.It involves the participation of seventy ( 70) teachers in Schools division office of San Pedro Laguna, selected using the purposive sampling technique. Data were gathered using descriptive statistics such as weighted mean, and standard deviation and Pearson r Correlation and Regression analysis was used to utilize the study.During the conduct of the study, the researcher will perform the following procedures. The questionnaire was created after the researcher read various articles and literature related to this study. The researcher will seek approval from the panel members for the assurance, validity, and reliability of the major instrument, and the approved questionnaire will be validated by three master teachers from different schools. The researcher will then seek permission from the school head and principal of each school to collect the necessary data for this study via a letter of request. Following approval, respondents will be instructed on how to complete the entire set of questionnaires. The researcher will personally administer the questionnaire distribution and retrieval. Before allowing respondents to complete the questionnaire, the researcher will thoroughly explain the direction and purpose of the study. Later, the data will be gathered, statistically treated, analyzed, and interpreted. The study shows that adaptive leadership significantly affects both academic performance and outcomes. It is advised for the school head to maintain and continue their good approaches in leadership, which will help improving the students' academic outcomes and well-being. The researcher thus draws the conclusion that the research hypotheses stating that "There is no significant relationship between adaptive leadership approaches and learners' academic behavior" are false. It is advised that all teachers support their school's decision-making and program implementation processes.Changes in the personal, social, and economic spheres are among the consequences of the new normal emergency. While technological advancement is an ongoing and clearly increasing trend, it is not without its detractors, particularly those associated with the humanistic tradition in education. This is more evident now that curriculum is viewed as a complex conversation. However, the transformation of face-to-face classes into online distance learning is now returning to in-person classes.
