dc.description.abstract | 1. The Problem
The secondary school headmaster occupies a well established
position in educational administration.
However, views concerning the appropriate and functional
roles of this post are by no means stabilized.
Research studies r-evealconf li.ct i.ng perceptions and
expectations of appropriate responsibilities of school
administrators. Therefore the search for adequate
conceptual formulations of the role of the school
administrator is significant and must continue.
There have been attempts to uncover the relationship
of certain situational factors to perceptions of
the role of school administrators. These research
studies reveal varying findings. This shows the
need for further research of the relationship between
situational factors and perceptions of the roles of
school administrators.
The purpose of this study was to investigate:
1. The perceptions that secondary school headmasters
and teachers have on the role of the secondary
school headmaster.
2. The relationship of (1) Size of the school
enrolment , (2) educational training, and (3) teaching
experience of headmasters and teachers to role
perceptions of the secondary school headmaster. | en |
