The instruments used were mathematics teacher performance and principals managerial competency questionnaires, and computer-based national exam tests to measure student mathematics learning achievement. Data analysis was performed using a regression test, namely the t-test and the F-test, to see the effect of mathematics teacher performance and principal managerial competence (individually and together). The results showed that mathematics teacher performance affected mathematics learning achievement with a t-value of 16.295, and principal managerial competence affected mathematics learning achievement with a t-value of 18.831.
