A study on the current state of head teachers’ competency in tourism school

Abstract

The research investigates the assessment and evaluation of head teachers in tourism schools, focusing on factors influencing their competence. A sample of 123 head teachers from Guizhou Tourism School participated, responding to a questionnaire. Statistical analysis included frequency, percentage, average, and standard deviation. Results reveal several findings: 1.) Marital status affects the competency of tourism class teachers, with married teachers exhibiting heightened awareness of students' physical and mental development. 2.) Age and teaching experience significantly impact the competency of head teachers, indicating higher competency levels with increasing age and teaching tenure. 3.) Professional title correlates positively with competency, with higher titles associated with enhanced competence.
