Abstract: This study focused on 379 elementary teachers across the National Capital Region (NCR) for the academic year 2023-2024. Using a descriptive methodology, the researcher collected data via self-organizing survey questionnaires. Data were analyzed using percentiles, median, arbitrary scales, and Spearman (Rho) product-moment correlations. The hypothesis was tested at a level of significance (0.05) and reliability of the test (Cronbach’s alpha) was evaluated at a satisfactory score (0.760). The researchers found that most elementary teachers were female, and the majority were professionally competent. There was a strong correlation between professional competence and the teachers ‘leadership skills. The level of commitment of the teachers varied with varying degrees of strength and direction (Excellent adjectival interpretation of professional commitment). The results demonstrate a high level of commitment among elementary teachers based on their active participation. This provides valuable insights for policy makers, school administrators and teacher training institutions to design and implement effective enhancement programs that further enhance competence, leadership skills and professional commitment in elementary teachers. These programs can be targeted toward the teachers and teacher training institutions in designing and implementing an effective enhancement program that supports the growth and development of targeted training programs.
