摘要:This research work examines the mediating role of teacher empowerment on the relationship between instructional leadership and school effectiveness. The study employed a correlational design. The population of the study comprised of 2361 teachers serving in 158 secondary schools across Zamfara State. A total number of 330 teachers were sampled using Cochran’s formula of determining sample size. Data was collected through field survey approach. The data was analysed using both descriptive and inferential (Partial Least Square [PLS] path modelling) statistics. Results from the study revealed that; there is a significant relationship between instructional leadership, teacher empowerment and school effectiveness. It was also found that, teachers’ empowerment mediates the relationship between instructional leadership and school effectiveness with a direct significant positive correlation with statistical value (Beta=0.199, t=7.187, p< 0.05). The study therefore recommends that; school principals should adopt instructional leadership practice with teacher empowerment for the attainment of an effective school system.
