The purpose of this study was to examine the instructional leadership role and the preference domain practised by Malaysian principals. It also examined the concordance between the level of instructional leadership and the level of students’ academic achievement. PIMRS questionnaire designed by Hallinger (1987) was adapted and employed. This study involved 220 school teachers. Findings revealed that Malaysian principals had successfully implemented the seven dimensions of instructional leadership role. Findings showed the existence of concordance between the level of instructional leadership and the level of students’ academic achievement. Hence, it implies instructional leadership role is vital in producing better academic achievement in schools.
