Abstract

This article sought to examine the ways in which secondary school principals support School Management Teams (SMTs) in carrying out their duties as instructional leaders. How can principals empower the SMTs is the main thesis of this article. The emphasis will be on principals' experiences carrying out their instructional leadership responsibilities in the South African province of Gauteng's Tshwane-West District. The thesis of this essay is that when principals fail to fulfill their obligations to support the school administration, student performance does not increase. Therefore, it becomes an issue if the administrator is not held responsible for raising student and teacher performance levels in the classroom. Design, method, and strategy A questionnaire was used to obtain the data. Through a thorough application of the knowledge gathered from the literature study, the questionnaire's content was made to hold up. To validate the questionnaire, a pilot study was done. The triangulation of data from many sources, including focus-group interviews and the questionnaire, served as the primary method of reliability in this study. Principals of secondary schools in South Africa's Gauteng province's Tshwane-West District made up the study's sample. All 55 secondary schools located in the Tshwane West District were included in the study using the total sample methodology.

Abstract

This article looked at how schools handle both unionized and non-unionized teachers. Understanding the administration of human resources, which heavily relies on the feelings, actions, and attitudes of principals as managers, was done through the lens of the theory of emotional intelligence. This article's research design was an interpretive case study that was qualitatively analyzed. The interpretivism paradigm is appropriate for the research design used in this work. According to the interpretivist paradigm, social reality is produced by individuals' irrational perceptions of their surroundings. Since focus is placed on hearing the participants' voices, a qualitative method is defined by its capacity to convey the opinions and viewpoints of participants. The qualitative methods of focus groups, observations, and interviews were employed to create this paper. Aside from their primary objective of ensuring that teaching and learning occur effectively at school, one of the key responsibilities of principals is the management of the two categories of teachers who work there: unionized and non-unionized. It is generally known that finding and putting into practice the ideal management techniques for these teachers is a monumental effort for principals. An assessment of current management techniques demonstrates the need for new management techniques to address the issues that administrators are having with managing these teachers. There are several ways to put these new tactics into practice. Among these techniques is building trust between principals and teachers through effective communication and involvement in decision-making.
