8. What do you consider a school principal’s biggest pressure?

Ambassadorship and here ambassadorship means I have to be everything to

everyone and it is said “A manger cannot be nice to everyone”.

9. As a principal, what helps you to make an effective bond with students?

The image of the school principal as a distant authority figure, especially in the eyes
of students, disprove the complex nature of the role and the potential it has to
meaningfully impact students. Further complicating efforts to better understand the
immensely relational aspects of the principalship is a large body of research on
school leadership that is primarily focused on issues of academic press and the
various pathways and mechanisms through which leadership’s effects on student
outcomes are manifest. The result is a principal who is often viewed by scholars and
laypeople alike as an administrator, a manager of resources and adults, and a
dispenser of discipline. While student outcomes (primarily academic) have become a
top priority over the years, there remains a perceived distance between principals
and individual students, with few exceptions.

10. How do you involve the staff & faculty in decision-making process?

A great leader understands that his or her success largely rests on the productivity of
his or her team. Although an effective leader is essential for any school to excel, a
leader alone cannot ensure the success of the entire organization. Further, a leader that
forges ahead alone with his or her own ideas is not truly a leader. When a team works
hard out of fear, the success will be temporary as job satisfaction will be low and
turnover will be high.

Moreover, students can feel a culture of fear and intimidation, and research has
consistently shown a positive school culture along with productive relationships is
strongly linked to student success. With these pieces in mind, a leader who is not
invested in collaborative decision-making will not find success.
In contrast, a leader who understands the value in collaborative decision-making will
constantly seek input and consider multiple viewpoints in making all critical
decisions. Decision-making logically should consider input from those who will be
responsible for direct implementation and have expertise related to the decision. With
regard to showing value for teachers’ feedback, actions speak louder than words. That
is, a leader’s behavior is what defines a leader as opposed to their beliefs and words.

11. What are the possible strategies (for school management) to make parents the

successful partner?

Great examples of school/community partnerships are happening all over the


world. We need more of them, and we need to ensure they are healthy and
relevant to the needs of 21st century learners.
Throughout my journey I kept setting up the Reinventing School Challenge, I
did a significant amount of research to ensure I had a thorough understanding
of what existed already, what worked, and what was possible.
The more I searched the themes for successful school transformation emerged:
• Community school partnerships

• Parental collaboration (Community council for is implemented by Govt.


of Punjab)

• Curriculum connected to real world experiences

• Student voice

• Cross generation learning

• Locals designing solutions to local problems

12. How would you help teachers and staff to improve student achievements?

Principals maintain a collective focus on school goals. They coordinate work within

and across teams to facilitate collective efforts. They also make sure that solutions

are shared and applied school-wide. by empowering and coordinating the work

of teachers and school staff around shared goals. After strong team building

School staff hold each other accountable for the success of all students in the
school, not just in their own classrooms. This accountability comes with support and

capacity-building, so that all teachers can reach their shared goals. For example,

teachers are trained in one consistent framework or approach to behavior

management and are committed to using it. Administrators are also consistent in

their treatment of behavior issues. The result is that adults in the school know what

to expect from each other, and they support each other to create clear expectations

of students.
