Discipline: Education

 

Abstract:

This study explores leadership experiences in a Chrislam learning environment, with a focus on the influence of Supreme Pupils Government (SPG) exposure among pupil leaders. It seeks to understand the profile of the Chrislam environment in terms of pupil and faculty demographics, leadership opportunities, pupil safety, and cultural and religious practices. The study also investigates the level of leadership among SPG members in both classroom and school-wide activities. A descriptive research design was employed, involving 210 SPG pupils from Grade VI in Lutayan Districts, Sultan Kudarat. Data were collected through a quantitative survey. Results show that the pupil population consists of 44% Christian and 56% Muslim pupils, while the faculty is composed of 62% Christian and 38% Muslim teachers. The learning environment was rated highly, especially in terms of religious practices (2.76) and leadership opportunities (2.73). The leadership of SPG officers was found to be very high in school activities (3.32) and classroom leadership (3.03). SPG members also demonstrated high adaptability (3.29) and a strong sense of belonging (3.85). The findings suggest that SPG members have a strong capacity for leadership and an appreciation for diversity within the Chrislam environment.
