Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah untuk mengkaji praktik kepemimpinan sekolah menengah sebagai determinan efisiensi internal di wilayah terdampak konflik bersenjata pada sekolah-sekolah terpilih di Bamenda Centre, Kamerun. Efisiensi internal merupakan aspek penting dalam fungsi produksi pendidikan yang apabila tidak ditingkatkan secara optimal oleh kepemimpinan sekolah dapat menyebabkan pemborosan sumber daya yang terbatas. Dalam konteks penelitian ini, efisiensi internal sekolah dikaji dengan menelusuri keterkaitannya dengan praktik kepemimpinan, yaitu supervisi pembelajaran, motivasi guru, dan manajemen keuangan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif. Dengan menerapkan teknik sampling proporsional dan purposif, sebanyak 187 guru dan 80 administrator sekolah dipilih sebagai responden. Instrumen pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah kuesioner. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan analisis regresi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa supervisi pembelajaran, motivasi guru, dan manajemen keuangan kepala sekolah secara signifikan memprediksi efisiensi internal sekolah menengah di wilayah konflik bersenjata. Berdasarkan temuan tersebut, disimpulkan bahwa praktik kepemimpinan sekolah merupakan determinan efisiensi internal di wilayah terdampak konflik bersenjata pada sekolah-sekolah menengah di Bamenda Centre. Rekomendasi diajukan kepada para pemangku kepentingan terkait.
