The study aimed to answer the two questions: What is the level of the effectiveness of school performance by using the TQS in Al-Petra province public schools as perceived school principals, and teachers? The second question: Are there any significant differences to the level of the effectiveness of school performance by using the TQS as perceived by school principals, and teachers, attributed to variables: gender, educational credentials employment status, and experience? The results of the study indicated that the implementation of educational technology came in the first place probably due to the concern the Ministry of Education. Also the study indicate that the level of utilizing strategies planning came to a medium degree in the last rank of the six dimensions. This may be due to the fact that the practice of school administrators for planning still depends on improvisation sometimes or situational management. While there is significant difference attributable to the gender, it was in favor of male school principals in the area of school learning and school climate. It's probably due to the attention of male school administrators. Finally, the study indicated that there was no statistically significant difference due to the experience variable in all dimensions.
