Both inquiries on current practices and challenges encountered in instructional supervision were analyzed using thematic and coding analysis, while the assessment of instructional supervision level surveyed through checklist questionnaire were statistically interpreted and presented through frequency count, weighted mean, and standard deviation. It was revealed that the school heads currently practice democratic supervision, collegiality and collaboration, clinical supervision, and curriculum supervision. The school heads' instructional supervision across the parameters of delivery mode teacher's monitoring activity, parents' involvement, and assessment are all practiced to a major extent implying that though implemented by the school heads to a high extent, Notable challenges exist in instructional supervision particularly on the difficulty in module distribution and retrieval, adjustment to curriculum implementation, school operation, not to mention the unresponsive, unwilling, and complacent teachers, and insufficient knowledge on giving instructional supervision.
