Abstract

Purpose-distributed leadership (DL) continues to draw practitioners and researchers’ attention in the context of education leadership as early as the 21st century. While an increasing amount of literature strongly advises principals to shift toward DL practices, there is a paucity of studies that indicate the extent to which this shift is taking place in practice across Islamic secondary schools. Consequently, this study investigates the distributed of leadership practices of two Islamic secondary schools located in two different countries. Design/methodology/approach-the study uses a collective case study methodology with a mixed-method approach, and collected data from 30 school teachers and interviews six school teachers. Findings-the findings reveal that both selected Islamic secondary schools have a definite hierarchy decided by top management. The findings also indicate that when leadership roles are distributed among classroom teachers, the schools do not seem to have fixed criteria. In addition, the findings illustrate that novice teachers are slowly given responsibilities and prepared to take on leadership roles. Implications–the findings could serve as a supportive literature in practicing DL across Islamic secondary schools to reduce the workload of headteachers. The findings further link DL to the development of a professional learning community though teacher leadership. Originality/value–The significance and originality of this research arguably falls along the fact that; it is the first of its kind to empirically investigate DL practices across Islamic secondary schools in two different geographical locations.

Abstract

This study identifies different factors that contribute to Bahraini pre-service teachers’ interest to specialize in early primary education. The sample of study comprised 108 year one and 49 foundation students enrolled in Bahrain Teachers College at the University of Bahrain. A stratified random sampling technique was used to insure the representation of all students from the foundation and the 1st year level. Results of the study showed that the most significant factors contribute to the pre-service teachers’ lack of interest in choosing early primary education specialization were, work environment factors such as classroom and school environment, early primary school students-related factors, personality-factors which relate to pre-service teachers’ personal qualities, and social factors such as lack of recognition, society and the influence of friends and colleagues. School administrators and decision makers can use the findings to improve the working conditions and environment in early primary education. The findings of the study provide baseline knowledge and data, empirical findings, and recommendations that can benefit administrators and Ministry of Education to improve the working conditions and environment in early primary education teaching profession.
