Abstract

This research explores how the instructional leadership practices of IBA community college principals impact the academic success of students. The research utilized a qualitative phenomenological approach and was conducted at five IBA community colleges affiliated with Sukkur IBA University in Sindh Province, Pakistan. These colleges had previously faced disadvantages but achieved high Grade 12 results. The study specifically focused on gathering insights from three individuals per college who had direct experience with the phenomenon: the principal, Vice principal, and Section Head. The findings highlighted various essential aspects of instructional leadership that affect students' academic performance, including improving student academic performance, inspiration and constructive impact of leadership, management instructions, promoting a favorable environment for teaching and learning, and adaptable application of distinct leadership approaches.
