The sample of this study acquired by cluster random sampling consisted of 354 school administrators and teachers. Determine sample size using Krejcie and Morgan ready-made tables. The instrument for data collection were a questionnaire and a rating scale questionnaire of competency of school administrators with validity between 0.60 to 1.00 discrimination between 0.32 to 0.73 and reliability 0.93 questionnaires of effectiveness of instructional administration in school with validity between 0.60 to 1.00 discrimination between 0.33 to 0.96 and reliability 0.93 the statistics used in data analysis were percentage, mean, standard deviation, correlation coefficient of Pearson, and stepwise multiple regression analysis.

The findings were as follows: 1) Competency of school administrators under under the secondary education service area office 22 are at a high level as a whole. 2) Effectiveness of instructional administrators in school under the secondary education service area office 22 are at a high level as a whole.
