Abstract

The relationship between school leadership and effectiveness has been extensively studied and debated over the past eighty years, highlighting their inseparability. The role of the school principal is crucial in determining the effectiveness of both teachers and students. Principals are primarily responsible for ensuring effective teaching, which is essential for achieving positive school outcomes. A principal's effectiveness can often be linked to students' academic success. This study aims to critically evaluate various leadership styles and their impact on school effectiveness, drawing from a comprehensive literature review. The research methodology employed was qualitative, involving a critical analysis of the available literature and recent studies. This study aims to contribute to the ongoing research on leadership and school effectiveness, providing insights for future investigations. The findings indicate that each leadership style has its strengths and weaknesses, as well as a distinct impact on school effectiveness. No single leadership style is universally perfect or suitable for all contexts. Therefore, it is concluded that school leaders should adopt a flexible approach, choosing or combining leadership styles according to the specific needs and circumstances.
