Abstract:

The importance of educational leadership training for school principals in the Solomon Islands is identified. Training and development of secondary school principals is an increasingly important part of a principal's professional repertoire as the many and complex roles of this position change. This study investigates the training needs of principals in the Solomon Islands. It adopts a quantitative case study approach using a survey questionnaire. Results gathered from 19 school principals are presented in tables and discussed. Priority areas for improving principal leadership are identified—the need for gender-balance in leadership appointment, and training for aspiring school leaders.
