Abstract

This research will be entitled Level of Implementation of Equitable Quality Education in a Private University: Basis for a Sustainability Plan. This study determined how educational leaders contribute to equitable education at PHINMA Araullo University. It described the educational leaders demographic profiles and professional backgrounds according to department affiliation, position, years of experience in teaching, and years of experience in administrative work. The study aimed to find out how educational leaders make principles of equity accurate in practice concerning access to learning, forming collaborative relationships, and involving a culture of inclusion in learning. This study applied a quantitative research design, collecting data through surveys presented to educational leaders in various departments. The statistics analysis shows a significant correlation between the perceptions of leaders implementing equity and their demographic independent variables. More specifically, affiliation with a department and tenure in administration had much to do with the view of access and resource distribution within educational leadership. Further, positive relationships exist among the different dimensions of equitable education, signifying that these are interdependent endeavours. The results suggested that characteristics of and experiences within the fields of educational leadership significantly influenced leaders approaches to promoting equity. Leaders who held long administrative experience and those from the stated specific departments were more likely to see high levels of equity implementation. Based on the findings, the study recommended a sustainability plan that included policy changes, focused training, leadership development courses, stakeholder engagements, and solid monitoring mechanisms. Research on practices and perceptions regarding equity has been an essential contribution to educational management for educational leaders. It brings up the need for professional development and policy support for them to breed more effective equity initiatives. Ultimately, this research will encourage the growth of inclusive environments within schools where all students can realize their full potential. It also shows the critical importance of consistent reflection and re-adjustment of strategies for sustainability and relevance in implementing equitable education practice.
