Abstract This study investigated the relationship between teachers’ classroom management strategies, teacher competence, and learners’ academic performance in Senior High Schools under the Schools Division of Iloilo during the 2024–2025 academic year. Using a descriptive-correlational research design, the study aimed to determine the level of classroom management practices and teacher competence, as well as how these factors influence student learning outcomes. A total of Senior High School teachers participated, representing various strands and school contexts through stratified random sampling. Data were collected using a researcher-developed questionnaire that underwent expert validation and pilot testing. Learners’ academic performance was obtained from teachers’ official records in core subject areas. Findings showed that teachers demonstrated strong classroom management practices, particularly in promoting positive behavior, establishing clear routines, and using strategies that support student engagement. Teacher competence was likewise found to be high, especially in areas of professional knowledge, instructional skills, and interpersonal relations. Learners generally performed well academically, reflecting consistent achievement across subject areas. The analysis revealed that both effective classroom management and high teacher competence contribute positively to learners’ academic performance. Teachers who were able to maintain well-managed classrooms and exhibit strong professional skills tended to support higher levels of student achievement. Furthermore, teachers with strong competence were also more likely to employ effective management strategies. The study concludes that the combination of effective classroom management and high teacher competence plays a vital role in enhancing student learning. It recommends continuous professional development, improved instructional support, and the creation of positive and supportive school environments to strengthen teaching practices and further improve learners’ academic outcomes.
