description: This paper is a personal reflection of a Malaysian secondary school principal in  two schools in Sabah, Malaysia. The author, Malaysian Chinese, held positions as  school teacher and teacher trainer prior to school principal highlighted academic  achievement in both schools using Malaysian public examinations – SPM and  PMR as measures during her headship from 2007 through 2012. The first school, a  predominantly Kadazan-Dusun community, was a large rural government day school  with an enrolment of about 1500. The second school, with enrolment of about 1300,  belongs to the “conforming school” or government aided school. This type of school  serves primarily the Chinese community but over time, it is found to be quite diverse.  The gain in SPM examination is 0.57 over four years in the first school and 0.68 in two  years in the second school. The gain in PMR examination is 0.57 and 0.12 respectively.
