1 Principal Leadership Matters More Than Ever
Principal leadership matters now more than ever before in the context of current complex environment.
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that effective principals are essential for positive student and school outcomes, but we now have stronger research evidence than ever before. One research report, which was released in February 2021, synthesizes studies involving over 22,000 principals. Its findings build on previous research summaries about school leaders, showing that the impact of an effective principal is stronger and broader than previously thought. The report points out that a principal’s impact is felt on a larger scale: principal impact 483 students, on average, compared with 21 students, on average, for teachers. [1] The researchers found that replacing a principal with an effectiveness level at the 25th percentile with a more effective principal (at the 75th percentile) yields an additional three months of learning in math and reading for students. [2] Some researchers made claims that without a power leader, troubled schools are unlikely to be turned around. They stress that many other factors may contribute to such turnarounds, but leadership is the catalyst. [3]
