The informants of the study comprised both public primary school heads and teachers. The study was mixed-methods and employed concurrent triangulation design. The Purdue Teacher Opinionaire (Bentley & Rempel, 1980) was adapted for measuring managerial practices and morale. Quantitative data for the study were collected from teachers (n=806) through multistage sampling technique and qualitative data from heads (n= 20) and teachers (n=31) through interview protocols. The study also verified the link between the managerial practices of heads and morale of teachers through positive statistical correlation. Findings ofthe study revealed that school heads were using autocratic managerial practices. The study concluded prevalence of dissatisfaction among teachers about the managerial practices of school heads, AEOs, Dy.DEOsand frequent threat of Punjab Employees Efficiency & Disciplinary Act (PEEDA, 2006) . Hence, the overall practices of school heads are found autocratic in nature by causing low morale of teachers. The study recommends that the primary school heads, AEOs, Dy.DEOs should be trained on establishing democratic attributes, relationship, and behaviour with the teachers by the Quaid-eAzam Academy for Education Development (QAED) to heighten the morale of teachers.  \nKeywords: Managerial practices, Morale of primary school teachers, Autocratic, Stress, strict & non-professional behaviour of heads  \n*PhD Scholar, Department of Education, University of Sargodha, Sargodha.

Management is a science as well as an art for the achievement of goals and objectives with the help of other people (Meisiek & Barry, 2014) . According to Shikuku (2015), management is the process of getting things done through people for the sake of improving the performance of the organization. Both management and organization rely on each other. No organization can get its goals and objectives without management. Educational institutions are also considered as organizations which are established for teaching and learning process (Modibbo et al., 2020) . Dybach (2019) reported that an ideal management is obligatory in educational institutions for the development of nation in the shape of social, moral, political, and economic grounds. Robbins (2009) mentioned that managerial practices are the ways of coordinating and integrating work activities with and through other people efficiently and effectively. Obviously, managerial practices are the working methods of school heads who are employed as a manager to achieve certain goals of an educational institution.  \nThe head of primary school has most significant position in an educational institution. The repute of the primary school mostly rests on the quality of the school head. Dunning and Elliott (2019) elaborated that school headship is the most significant component which can play vital role to the achievement of objectives in the primary schools. According to Tamilselvi and Sethurajan (2010), the job of the educational managers like school heads, principals, administrative officers, etc. is the most demanding and complex. Therefore, the primary school head has to play an effective role in school managerial practices to fulfill his responsibilities. The managerial practices of the school heads greatly influence the environment of the school.
