The purpose of this study was to predict the effectiveness of Zahedan elementary school principals based on the triple factors of position in the Fiedler leadership model. The presented study was a descriptive correlational study in which 356 elementary school teachers were studied with stratified randomized sampling through two questionnaires including determining the leadership situation and the effectiveness of school administrators. The correlation coefficient and simultaneous multiple regression were used for data analysis with the help of SPSS software. Based on results, there was a positive and significant relationship between the three factors of leadership position (authority, leader-member relationship, duty structure). The results of multiple regression analysis also showed that the three situational factors can predict the effectiveness of school principals. Therefore, it can be concluded that school administrators should benefit from good authority, have good interactions with teachers and emphasize the structure of tasks to increase their effectiveness.

The 2013 Curriculum Reform and its effect on school practices remain a challenge for Indonesia since the roles of school leadership remain unaddressed. This study aimed to examine the effect of school leadership on instructional practices and student learning. This cross-sectional survey collected data from 1,082 students and 180 teachers from randomly selected 40 junior secondary school principals. Employing education production function models, this study found that the quality of school leadership had impacts on teachers’ ability to create student-centered instruction and consequently on student learning. Results suggest that school reforms would be even more successful, among other things, through establishing school principals as professional agents of change that help teachers transform their instructional behavior and improve learning.

The quantitative research, the partial results described in this article, was carried out as part of the COVID-HL network (covid-hl.eu). They aimed to determine to what extent health promotion and safety measures were taken in Polish schools during the COVID-19 pandemic for members of school communities. A survey method was used to conduct the research, which included an online distributed questionnaire. The research sample consisted of principals and deputy principals of schools located in eight provinces (N = 803). The research showed that school principals were highly involved in implementing health promotion activities and were, at the same time, severely burdened with tasks related to ensuring the safety of all school community representatives and maintaining proper organisation of school work during the pandemic.

The article presents the results of the research, which are part of a larger research project inspired by the critical evaluation of the quality of competition procedures for the position of school head. The currently functioning solutions are inadequate, there is no comprehensive vision regarding the quality of leadership, cognitive skills and the desired personality profile of Polish school heads. The main goal of the presented research was the empirical identification of psychological (personality and intellectual) predispositions and managerial competences of teachers - potential candidates for directors. In the course of the study, the profiles of 162 active teachers were analyzed using standardized diagnostic tools and questionnaires. As a result, it was possible to identify the potential of teachers in terms of selected predispositions and management philosophies.

W artykule przedstawiono wyniki badań, stanowiące część większego projektu badawczego, którego inspiracją była krytyczna ocena jakości procedur konkursu na stanowisko dyrektora szkoły. Obecnie funkcjonujące rozwiązania, są nieadekwatne, brak jest kompleksowej wizji dotyczącej jakości przywództwa, zdolności poznawczych i pożądanego profilu osobowościowego dyrektorów polskich szkół. Głównym celem prezentowanych badań była empiryczna identyfikacja predyspozycji psychologicznych (osobowościowych i intelektualnych) i kompetencji menedżerskich nauczycieli – potencjalnych kandydatów na dyrektorów. W toku badań przeanalizowano profile 162 aktywnych nauczycieli za pomocą wystandaryzowanych narzędzi diagnostycznych i kwestionariuszy. W efekcie udało się zidentyfikować potencjał nauczycieli w zakresie wybranych predyspozycji i filozofii zarządzania.

W artykule podjęto problematykę skutecznych praktyk przywódczych dyrektorów szkół w zakresie wspierania zdolności adaptacji szkół i nauczycieli w czasie pandemii COVID-19. Prezentowane analizy skupiają się wokół odpowiedzi na podstawowe pytanie badawcze: jakie są główne sposoby działania skutecznych liderów na rzecz wspierania adaptacji szkół i nauczycieli w Polsce do nowych warunków w celu maksymalizacji możliwych pozytywnych rezultatów zdalnej edukacji w czasach pandemii COVID-19? W badaniach wykorzystano metodę studium przypadku. Odwołując się do pięciu studiów przypadków, przedstawiono siedem podstawowych praktyk skutecznego przywództwa w szkołach: podtrzymywanie świadczenia usług edukacyjnych i wprowadzanie innowacji; planowanie w kontekście niepewności i reagowanie na zmiany w polityce krajowej; przeformułowanie i rozszerzenie polityki bezpieczeństwa i higieny pracy w oparciu o dane dotyczące zdrowia i edukacji; przywództwo w całej szkole; zapewnienie integracyjnego programu nauczania; inkluzywne integracyjne partnerstwo z rodzinami dzieci oraz motywację, zaangażowanie i rozwój zawodowy nauczycieli. W artykule zaprezentowano implikacje dla dalszych badań oraz pytania dotyczące roli dyrektorów szkół w budowaniu bardziej odpornych systemów edukacyjnych.

This paper analyses the successful school principals’ leadership practices in supporting school and teachers’ resilience in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The research reported in this paper asks the question: what are the successful leaders’ main ways of supporting resilience in schools and teachers in Poland for maximising the possible positive outcomes of remote education in times of the COVID-19 pandemic? Drawing on five case studies, the paper shows seven core successful school leadership practices – sustaining education service delivery and innovations; planning in a context of uncertainty and responding to changes in national policy; re-framing and extending “Health & Safety” policies based on health and education data; leadership across the school; provision of an inclusive curriculum; inclusive partnership with children’s families; and teachers’ motivation, commitment and professional development. The paper concludes with implications for further research and with questions on school principals’ role in building back more resilient education systems.
