Effectiveness of Principals’ Roles on School Performance: Perspective of School Principal-Ship

Abstract

This paper was about analyses of the principals’ effectiveness on school performance and how principals play a major role to make the school do well in terms of academic results. Furthermore, the paper discussed why it is important to have good leaders (principals) in schools who are able to contribute to the school’s effectiveness in terms of school performance. The mixed-method was employed in this study as both descriptive and statistical data were used. In addition, the study included 30 participants who comprised both principals and teachers. The results revealed that the majority of teachers disagreed that their principals are not highly effective while some principals seem not to be well acquainted with the knowledge of the effectiveness of principals’ roles.
