A study of the jobs of 255 headteachers in England and Wales was replicated with twenty elementary school principals in Texas. These studies examined the most important and most time-consuming tasks of the headteachers’ and principals’ jobs, the context factors of the jobs, and the work-related personality characteristics of the job incumbents. The results of the study have been used as a tool for the professional development of the twenty principals; they also suggest direction for further exploration of comparisons and contrasts between jobs of headteachers and principals.

Competency Level

The aim of this study was to assess the managerial and supervisory competency levels of public elementary school principals in Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta Province. A questionnaire was used to collect data from 90 public elementary school principals. The data were analysed using a quantitatve approach. The results showed that the managerial competency level of these school principals was good. Continuing professional development (CPD) programs for principals are needed to further improve their competency levels. In addition, these CPD programs should focus on leadership rather than school management skills as the characteristics of the principal job have changed significantly.
