Abstract: This study explores how ethical leadership practices among school principals influence administrative performance and overall school quality. Using a mixed-methods design, it gathers data from teachers through surveys, interviews, and focus group discussions. Findings reveal that principals who model integrity, transparency, and accountability positively affect organizational outcomes, especially in administrative management, financial oversight, and learning environment development. A strong positive correlation between ethical leadership and principal performance underscores the critical role of ethical governance. Based on the results, the study proposes a comprehensive action plan emphasizing ethics-based training, clear expectations, and stakeholder collaboration to nurture ethical leadership in schools.
