This study examined the influence of secondary school teachers’ 21st Century Skills on their teaching performance in Garchitorena District, Division of Camarines Sur, during the 2023–2024 school year. Specifically, it assessed teachers’ levels of commitment, compassion, creativity, competence, and character, and evaluated their teaching performance across content knowledge and pedagogy, learning environment, diversity of learners, curriculum planning, and assessment. Employing a descriptive-correlational research design, data were collected from 128 respondents through a researcher-developed questionnaire. Statistical analyses included weighted mean, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and coefficient of determination. Findings revealed that teachers possessed a high level of 21st Century Skills (M = 3.84) and demonstrated high teaching performance (M = 3.85). Significant positive correlations were identified between specific 21st Century Skills dimensions and corresponding teaching performance domains, with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.579 to 0.665 (p < 0.001). However, the influence of 21st Century Skills on teaching performance was generally weak to very weak. Based on these results, a targeted ICT development training program was proposed to enhance teachers’ digital competencies, adaptability, and innovative practices. The study concludes that strengthening teachers’ 21st Century Skills is essential for effectively addressing diverse learner needs and preparing students for future challenges.
