To measure the effect of demographic variables in efficacy Influence, decision making, efficacy to influence school resources instructional self-efficacy, disciplinary self-efficacy, efficacy to enlist parental Involvement, and efficacy to enlist Community Involvement. This study used the quantitative method and the Bandura Teacher Self-efficacy questionnaire to establish the correlation between variables. Participants were randomly selected from the Thabo-Mofutsanyana district of Free State rural high schools.
