In this context, the method of teaching of the teachers who apply classroom
management being a process of maintaining and establishing an effective learning environ,
has found highly successful within the recent research findings (Cambridge International,
2019). Besides, while comparing such methodology of educational leadership with the other
methodology of the teachers who focus on mainly emphasizing over their designated roles of
disciplinarians or authority figures and hence makes intuitive sense, then we found that
former one is a more effective pedagogy of teaching than the later one (Pamies, Senent, &
Essomba, 2016).
The reason behind is classroom management plays an important role in effective
teaching pedagogy. Besides, without an effective classroom management no educational
leader can establish or maintain active learning environments (Pamies, Senent, & Essomba,
2016). To have an effective learning environment, a teacher or educational leader works in
the direction of satisfying their students’ expectation in best possible way, which is ultimately
promotes an effective teaching pedagogy (Morrison, 2015). Moreover, while building active

learning environments within the classrooms, teachers unintentionally produce several
motivational variables like success, interest, novelty for the students which motivates them
for cultivating their knowledge about the real concepts and their applicability (Cambridge
International, 2019).
On the other hand, teachers who only utilize their authoritative roles of disciplinarians
for making intuitive sense usually get failed in enhancing students’ knowledge. In this way,
this approach is lagging in real sense of educational leadership because a leader within the
education sector is the one who knows the way, goes the way and leads the way (Faozanudin,
2014). The true leader always demonstrates leadership while cherishing the knowledge of
their sub-ordinates not enjoying the supremacy of the role as authority.
