Abstract: This study aimed to determine the mediating effect of accountability climate on the relationship between transcendental leadership of school heads and institutional productivity of public elementary schools in Region XI. Stratified random sampling technique was used which included 391 teachers as respondents. Through non-experimental quantitative mediation analysis through medgraph, validated questionnaire, mean, regression techniques and pearson-r, results showed significant relationships between transcendental leadership of school heads, institutional productivity and accountability climate. There was a partial mediation on the effect of accountability climate on the relationship between transcendental leadership of school heads and institutional productivity. Accordingly, accountability climate is one of the reasons how transcendental leadership of school heads can influence institutional productivity. It cannot, however, completely account for the relationship between the two variables.
Keywords: educational management, transcendental leadership, institutional productivity, accountability climate, mediating effect, Philippines.
