dc.description.abstract |
Despite increased attention to capacity building, there is still limited understanding of the role capacity
plays in ensuring adequate performance in the public sector. School Principals are regarded as strategic,
instructional, executive, organisational and cultural leaders. Experience suggests that achieving better education
outcomes requires both an injection of resources and adequate local capacity to use those resources
effectively. There are innumerable changes that principals must contend with, and these necessitate them to
have the necessary skills, knowledge, and attitudes to manage and lead schools effectively and efficiently. This
study was undertaken to explore how leadership capacity is strengthened for secondary school Principals with
reference to the Ekurhuleni South District. It also aims to understand leadership development framework for
school leadership. A qualitative research approach was selected to investigate the role principals play in building
leadership capacity in post level one teachers. The population of the study comprised ten principals in public
secondary schools in Ekurhuleni South District. Semi-structured individual telephone surveys were conducted.
The questionnaire comprised Likert scale questions. The researchers obtained written permission from the
GDE before commencement of any communication with the employees of the organisation. It is therefore
important that capacity building programmes are put in place to strengthen the management and leadership
of school principals. A set of recommendations including a capability audit and the use of successorship to
build leadership capacity are offered for effective implementation of leadership capacity building in a school |
