ABSTRACT: In the past, the leadership position primarily involved how leaders handled
their role. The notion of collective leadership is significant for constructing
the educational community and sustaining inclusive collective participation.
This paper shows the framework of the leadership, and comprehensively addresses
the ways in which leaders have a direct impact on classroom instruction
and student learning outcomes. The study outlines how leadership abilities
are linked to student achievement and illustrates how principals and instructional
leaders are the central figures of this leadership. The study found
the ways in which leaders indirectly influence student achievement through
their impact on teacher motivation and work conditions, and whether teachers’
knowledge and skills have an effect on student achievement in the educational
system. The influences of collective leadership on classroom instruction
were examined, including ways in which changes in instruction could influence
both teachers and students.
