Effective Management of Secondary School Head Teachers in Punjab: A Comparative Study

Abstract

    Heads are leading figures in educational institutions responsible for the training of future generations but also have to perform many key functions to achieve the predetermined objectives. The objective was a comparison of management effectiveness between direct selectees and promoted secondary school headteachers of Punjab. A close-ended rating scale consisting of 25 statements was developed on five-point Likert scale for 464 senior Secondary School Teachers (SSTs) selected through multistage random sampling. Nine district educational administrators were interviewed using structured interview schedule. Reliability was assured as 0.83 by test and re-test approach. After analysis of data, it was concluded that headteachers selected directly by Punjab Public Service Commission had better school management effectiveness as compared to promoted headteachers. It was clear that direct selectee headteachers were more effective in enhancing enrollment and producing better PEC and BISE results than promoted headteachers.
