Multi-Perspective Research on School Principals STRAND 1: Successful school principals

Objectives of STRAND 1 are to:

• identify the criteria used to define successful leadership in each participating country

• investigate and analyse the knowledge, skills and dispositions which successful school leaders use in implementing leadership practices across a range of successful primary and secondary schools in different countries and in different policy and social contexts

• identify those leadership practices that are uniquely important to large vs small schools, urban vs rural schools, schools with homogenous vs diverse student populations, and high vs low poverty schools

• explore the relationship between leadership values, practices, broader social and school specific conditions, and student outcomes in different countries.
