Abstract:

School managers currently face major challenges of finding innovative ways to improve the quality of teaching and learning and ultimately student outcomes. This might be because contemporary leadership models promote either requisite curricular expertise or requisite leadership qualities or requisite norms and values which impact notably on teaching and learning. This study examined to which extent School Management Teams (SMT’s) contribute to the quality of teaching and learning when utilizing an integrated leadership approach in primary schools.The extent to which integrated leadership contr

Abstract:

Although the Task Team on leadership and development (DoE, 1996) has introduced the notion of shared (collaborative) leadership as embodied among others in school management teams, considerable doubt remains about its practical implementation (DoE, 1996). It seems that there may be widespread failure to implement the idea of collaborative (shared) leadership (DoE, 1996). The problem this research explores is whether, in the opinion of school management team members, the traditional approach to leadership has changed (DoE, 1996).

Understanding technical skills of financial resource management is clearly one of the most important aspects of the school business administrator‟s job. Less clear is their understanding of the collaborative role played in addressing issues of equity and low achievement of marginalized students, and how decisions made about use of resources advances social justice and equity or perpetuates oppression within the school setting. This study examines the perceptions of school business administrators about how they can work most effectively with school leadership teams to leverage district funds to

Abstract:

In both developed and developing countries poor performance of head teachers is detrimental to school effectiveness, with consequent economic costs amounting to billions of dollars every year. These costs are perhaps particularly keenly felt in developing countries, where demand for a workforce that is proficient in globally relevant competencies is especially acute, but where the effective school leadership that can help to deliver this educated workforce is especially patchy. One of the contributing factors to this poor performance is a lack of structured leadership development programmes. T

Abstract:

This thesis seeks to increase understanding as to how primary school principals in Israel perceive the impact of school-based management on their leadership practices.

This is an interpretive qualitative study, using the collective case study approach. Fifteen in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted with twelve primary school principals, leading schools which had undergone a transition to school-

This study focuses on how school management teams manage the school-based continuous professional development of the teachers at their schools.

At present the professional development of teachers consists mainly of external workshops and courses. Teachers then return to the school context that has not changed to accommoda
