Abstract : The impact of instructional supervision by principals on students' achievement was examined. The objective of the study was to investigate the relationship between teacher oversight and academic performance. The research methods employed in the study involved surveying educators using a questionnaire to evaluate their perceptions of instructional supervision. The data that was collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis. The results indicated that a majority of respondents agreed that principals were responsible for overseeing classroom activities and ensuring the availability of teaching resources. A significant positive association between instructional supervision and student performance was revealed.The study concluded that instructional supervision had a statistically significant impact on student achievement. Several recommendations were provided based on the findings, including the need for proper education and training for instructional supervisors, fostering supportive and nurturing supervision approaches, ensuring access to high-quality teaching and learning materials, promoting frequent and insightful classroom observations, and encouraging collaboration and networking among instructional supervisors. The implementation of these recommendations had the potential to improve student outcomes and enhance instructional supervision practices.
