Abstract

The current research aims to construct a scale for evaluating the administrative performance of the sports activity departments within the general directorates of education in Baghdad Province from the perspective of physical education teachers. Additionally, it seeks to determine the level of administrative performance of these departments from the same perspective. The researchers adopted the descriptive method using a survey approach due to its suitability for the nature and objectives of the study. Selecting the sample is considered one of the crucial stages in research, as it must accurately represent the original population and align with the characteristics of the case under investigation. Therefore, the research population included physical education teachers within the educational directorates of Baghdad, totaling 9,184 individuals across six directorates affiliated with the Ministry of Education: Rusafa I, Rusafa II, Rusafa III, Karkh I, Karkh II, and Karkh III for the academic year 2023-2024. The researchers purposefully selected the sample through comprehensive enumeration by identifying the research population's characteristics. They then proceeded to choose a suitable sample in preparation for applying the study, based on Steven Thompson's formula. Therefore, the researchers selected a sample of 369 teachers, representing 100% of the research population, using the comprehensive enumeration method. Among the key conclusions were that the supervisor should organize regular seminars and meetings with teachers to discuss planned objectives, involve physical education teachers in formulating and designing competition plans, maintain good social relationships with teachers, and avoid displaying any arbitrariness in their work. As for the recommendations, the researchers advise using the study's scales in diagnosing, measuring, and assessing the administrative performance of supervisors and teachers in the sports activity departments. Additionally, they recommend equipping government institutions with all technological tools and modern communication methods to stay updated with the latest developments, thus supporting administrative performance and achieving all targeted objectives. and this achieves one of the sustainable development goals of the United Nations in Iraq which is (Quality Education).
