Abstract This study explored the leadership skills of school heads, their collaboration with staff and stakeholders, and the level of support from stakeholders in the Schools Division of Antique during the school year 2024–2025. Employing a descriptive-correlational research design, the study assessed the levels of leadership skills, collaboration, and stakeholders’ support, and examined the relationships among these variables. The respondents included 218 teachers and school personnel selected through stratified random sampling. Data were gathered using a researcher-developed questionnaire validated by experts and tested for reliability. Descriptive statistics—frequency, percentage, weighted mean, and standard deviation—were used to analyze the levels of the variables, while Pearson Product-Moment Correlation was applied to determine significant relationships. Findings revealed that school heads demonstrated a high level of leadership skills, particularly in communication, decision-making, instructional supervision, and strategic planning. Collaboration among school heads, teachers, parents, and community members was also rated high, reflecting effective teamwork and shared responsibility. Stakeholders’ support was similarly high, indicating active engagement from parents, community organizations, and local government units. Further analysis showed significant positive relationships between leadership skills and collaboration, leadership skills and stakeholders’ support, and collaboration and stakeholders’ support. The study concludes that strong leadership skills among school heads are crucial for fostering collaboration and enhancing stakeholder support. These interconnected factors contribute significantly to effective school management and the successful implementation of school programs. The findings provide practical insights for policymakers, school leaders, and future researchers aiming to strengthen leadership practices in public schools.
