Teacher teacher's behavior was measured using the Teacher Behaviors Inventory (TBI) developed by Murray (1983a), while teacher’s quality is measured by the Quality of Teachers Model Establishment formed by Azizah Sarkowi in 2012. The descriptive analysis of the number, percentage, mean and standard deviation used to describe the demographics of survey respondents and the research and analysis, inference of multiple regression, Pearson correlation, t-test and ANOVA were used for testing hypotheses constructed according to certain statistics. The findings showed the impact of school leadership on teachers’ behavior and teachers’ quality among teachers generation ‘Y’ and teachers' behavior was found to act as a partial mediator on the relationship between school leadership and teachers’ quality.
