The primary objective of this study was to determine the relationship between emotional competence and successful secondary school teaching. A total of 1252 educators from public high schools made up the study's sample. Out of the 251 secondary school teachers, a sample of 126 men and 125 women instructors were selected for the study. The study employed a co-relational design where random sampling was used to select the sample. The Trait Emotional Intellect Questionnaire, developed by K.V. Patride, was used to evaluate the emotional intelligence of secondary school teachers. The Board of Secondary and Intermediate Education in Rawalpindi administered the annual class 10 exam, and the results were used to evaluate the teachers' performance. The mean, standard deviation, and Pearson r were used to analyze the collected data. The results of the study showed a strong correlation between the emotional intelligence of high school teachers and their effectiveness in the workplace.
