Abstract

The National Education Goal is a strong vision towards achieving the national education vision based on our country's National Education Philosophy. It plays an important role in efforts to produce first-class human capital which will then be able to increase the economy of the people with high incomes by 2020 (Yahya Don, 2012). Education requires a process of change that can develop the country and its children in the future. Effective and quality education will help produce a new generation who understand the meaning of life and responsibility. Such new young people will strive to develop their talents and potential towards building a better life, whether through themselves, family, race, religion, or country (Yahya Don, 2012; Najeemah Mohd Yusof, 2012). This study was conducted to develop and validate an instrument based on the Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) process for measuring the Headmaster Leadership Style (based on Transformational Leadership, Transactional Leadership, Laisez_Faire Leadership), Teacher Management Motivation and Malaysian Education Quality Standards (MEQS) Wave 2 (MEQSw2) among the Management of Terengganu National Schools. This study uses quantitative research methods based on Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze various relationships between variables in the study model. Before the data is analyzed using SEM, EFA is carried out to identify the appropriateness of the items used in the research instrument. This study describes in detail the procedure of conducting EFA analysis for each construct. The findings of this study show validity values based on Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO), Total Variance Explained (TVE), Factor Loading (FL) and reliability values based on Cronbach's Alpha (CA), have met all the required values.
