Principal leadership and school performance : a case study in Gauteng schools

This study investigated the relationship between principal leadership and school
performance in Gauteng schools. The study examined the role and functions of the
school principal, the differences between schools which perform well and schools
which perform poorly, and what influence the leadership style of the principal has on
the performance of the school. It was a qualitative study. Principals and teachers were
interviewed. The study found that the leadership style of the school principal influences
the performance of the school. The study also revealed that the principal, the
management team, the teachers and the community all need to be invested in the
success of the school in order to provide the learners with quality education. / Educational Management and Leadership / M. Ed. (Education Management)
