The most frequent practice of Absorptive Capacity was ‘I am always concerned with the latest information to increase my school excellence’ with mean score 4.6111. The component of Adaptive Capacity highest score was item ‘I am always ready to receive new ideas that can enhance the school excellence’ with the mean score of 4.7222.
