The Development of a Supervision Model to Enhance Educational Quality at Wat Salameechai Municipal School, under Nakhon Si Thammarat Municipality

Abstract

This research aimed to: 1) study the needs for developing a supervision model, 2) develop the supervision model, 3) implement the model, and 4) evaluate teacher satisfaction toward the supervision model for enhancing educational quality at Wat Salameechai Municipal School. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) methodology. The sample consisted of 7 supervisors, 30 supervisee teachers, and 381 elementary students (Grades 1–6). The research instruments included questionnaires, tests, and observation forms. Data were analyzed using percentage, mean, standard deviation, the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test, and the dependent samples t-test.

            The research findings were as follows

            1) The overall need for developing a supervision model was at a high level. The highest need was in instructional management, followed by teaching staff development, and measurement and evaluation, respectively.

            2) The developed supervision model, titled the "CEIPE Model," consists of five stages: 1) Screening competency levels, (2) Establishing positive relationships between supervisors and teachers, 3) Providing pre-supervision knowledge,
4) Implementing the supervision process, and 5) Evaluating supervision outcomes.

            3) The findings from the implementation of the CEIPE Model revealed that: 1) the supervisors exhibited supervisory competencies at a high to very high level and demonstrated increased instructional leadership; 2) the supervisees' post-test knowledge scores were significantly higher than their pre-test scores at the .05 level, with their learning management competency improving to a very high level; and 3) students across all grade levels achieved significantly higher post-test academic performance at the .05 level, confirming that the supervision model directly impacts the enhancement of learner quality.

            4)Teacher Satisfaction Overall, the supervised teachers expressed the highest level of satisfaction toward the CEIPE Supervision Model, with the highest score specifically in specify area if any.
