Abstract
<p><em>Effective administration in secondary schools plays a pivotal role in ensuring quality education and creating a positive learning environment. The leadership abilities of principals and teachers are central to the success of educational institutions, particularly in motivating staff, maintaining effective communication, and engaging in continuous professional development. Motivation among both teachers and students significantly contributes to a productive school atmosphere, where teachers are more likely to adopt innovative teaching practices and students are more likely to actively engage in their learning. In secondary schools, where challenges such as inadequate resources and diverse student needs persist, the importance of skilled school leadership becomes even more critical. Motivation strategies that enhance teacher and student performance are vital in fostering academic success and school effectiveness. Communication within the school community is equally crucial, as it ensures alignment with the institution's goals and policies, facilitating smooth operations and fostering collaboration. This study explores the role of principal-teacher motivation, communication, and training in enhancing administrative effectiveness in secondary schools, with a particular focus on addressing challenges faced in diverse educational environments. By understanding the impact of these factors, this research contributes to developing strategies that promote educational quality and improve school management practices.</em></p>
