Administrative supervision refers to which of the following?

• A. The on-site day-to-day supervision of staff as they perform their regular duties
• B. Supervising curriculum development
• C. Evaluating teachers
• D. Conducting community outreach

Answer: (A)

Administrative supervision centers on the on-site, day-to-day oversight of staff as they carry out their regular duties. It involves making sure routines run smoothly, policies and procedures are followed, schedules are kept, resources are allocated, and problems are addressed in real time to keep the school operating effectively and service delivery consistent.

This differs from supervising curriculum development, which focuses on the content and instructional design of what is taught, or evaluating teachers, which involves assessing teaching performance and providing feedback for personnel decisions. Conducting community outreach is about external engagement and program development rather than daily internal supervision.
