Expectations Held by Teachers, Principals and Superintendents for the Role of the Elementary and the High School Principal
|
| Abstract |
The author studied the role expectations held for (a) elementary and (b) high school principals by 13 superintendents, 84 principals and 1,530 teachers within the Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal. By means of a questionnaire the positions of each group and areas of within-group and between-group consensus and conflict were investigated by the author regarding relationships with parents, attitude toward new-methods, supervision of teachers, unconditional teacher support, social relationships with teachers, teacher control and sharing of responsibility. In addition, the relative importance attached to twenty common functions of a principal by each group was explored. The author found that agreement was high and positive in attitude toward new methods and the sharing of responsibility, but some conflict was evident in the other five areas. Disagreement existed over the importance of some of the twenty functions, but all groups placed the formulation of the school's goals and policies as most important and office and plant management as least.
