Abstract

This study aims to investigate the interplay between principal leadership, school management practices, and teacher competence in facilitating character building within educational settings. Employing Bloom's Taxonomy as a conceptual framework, the research seeks to understand how these factors synergize to nurture holistic development among students. The study utilizes purposive sampling to select participants, including principals and teachers, from diverse educational institutions. Data analysis involves thematic coding and triangulation of perspectives. Initial findings suggest that effective principal leadership and strategic school management strategies significantly influence the cultivation of character traits in students. Moreover, teacher competence emerges as a crucial factor in implementing character education initiatives. The study underscores the intricate relationship between leadership, management, and teacher efficacy in shaping a conducive environment for character development in schools.
