The informants consisted of 191 school administrators and teachers. The research instrument was a questionnaire and evaluation form to testify appropriateness and feasibility of approaches. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics which were frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, PNI [Modified], mode, and content analysis. The results showed that the current state of overall collective responsibility was at a high level (M = 3.67). In this state, the teacher-student interaction was the highest mean (M = 3.88). The desirable state of overall collective responsibility was at the highest level (M = 4.59). In this state, the teacher-student interaction was the highest mean (M = 4.66). The first priority was the student achievement (PNI [modified] = 0.28) followed by learning activities (PNI [modified] = 0.27) and student motivation (PNI [modified] = 0.27). There were three approaches, nine sub-approaches, and twenty-three procedures. The approaches sorted by priority needs index were (1) Developing teachers to have a collective responsibility for the development of learning achievements by creating a professional learning community, team learning and assignments, consisting of 3 sub-approaches and 10 procedures.
