This paper develops an analytical model for examining the relationship between business education skills and teaching effectiveness among secondary school Business Studies teachers. The study adopts a qualitative analytical research design based exclusively on a critical synthesis of the supplied literature. The analysis conceptualizes business education skills through four interconnected dimensions: pedagogical and instructional competence, practical and work-related competence, self-management and problem-solving competence, and technological/adaptive competence. The literature indicates that business education programmes are expected to develop competencies that extend beyond subject knowledge to include practical application, creativity, organizational capacity, and responsiveness to changing educational and occupational environments. The proposed model consequently positions acquired skills as the principal explanatory construct, teaching effectiveness as the outcome construct, and programme quality, supervision, practical exposure, and curriculum alignment as contextual mechanisms influencing the strength of the relationship. The model further suggests that possessing skills alone does not guarantee effective classroom performance; rather, their transfer into instructional planning, classroom delivery, assessment, learner engagement, and practical demonstration is critical. The study contributes a structured analytical framework that can guide teacher preparation, programme evaluation, quality assurance, and future empirical investigation of Business Studies teaching effectiveness.</p> Dr. Nethmi Perera, Mr. Kavindu Jayasinghe Copyright (c) 2026 Dr. Nethmi Perera, Mr. Kavindu Jayasinghe https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://theusajournals.com/index.php/ijp/article/view/11584 Tue, 01 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000
