Description
Examining the Practice of School Administration in Canada is a practice-oriented edited collection that is relevant for current and aspiring school administrators, and for professors and students of educational administration. The text has been divided into three sections under roles, functions, and structures.
In the first section, the authors look particularly at the roles of the superintendent, principal, and vice-principal. In part two, they address the various functions of administrators, and how the administrators construct their roles. Finally, the authors focus on the structures that affect the manner in which administrative roles and functions are sustained.
