خطة استشرافية لتطوير الأدوار الوظيفية لمديري المدارس في ضوء معايير المدرسة الفاعلة : دراسة تحليلية لتعزيز القيادة التربوية والمؤسسية
This study aimed to explore the role of school principals in enhancing the quality of education and improving school effectiveness, with a focus on the functional roles of school principals and the standards of effective schools. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach, analyzing relevant educational literature and reviewing local and international experiences in educational leadership and school management. The study yielded several key findings, most notably that school principals play a pivotal role in achieving educational quality through effective educational leadership and balanced management of administrative and educational aspects. The results also showed that implementing effective school standards requires providing the necessary material and human resources, enhancing the administrative authority of school principals, and developing their leadership skills through continuous training. In light of these findings, the study recommended the need to establish national standards for effective schools based on local realities, improve the selection process of school principals based on professional competence, and provide material and moral support to enable them to perform their duties effectively. It also called for increasing school budgets and granting school principals broader authority to manage resources and implement innovative educational initiatives. (Published abstract)
