Managerial Skills And Enhancement Strategies Of Secondary School Principals
This paper investigated the managerial skills possessed by secondary school principals in Anambra State and the enhancement strategies for national transformation. Two research questions and two null hypotheses guided the study. A proportionate stratified random sample of 268 principals and 1159 teachers totaling 1427 respondents, took part in the study. A fourteen- item questionnaire was used for data collection. Data was analyzed using mean scores, standard deviation and t-test. The finding indicated that the many principals did not possess the managerial skills for effective management of secondary school for national transformation. It was also found out that there was a significant difference between the mean rating of principals and teachers on the managerial skills and enhancement strategies for the principals. Among the recommendations made were that principals that did not specialize in education should be encouraged to get at least a diploma in Education. They should be encouraged or sponsored to undertake continuous self professional development. These would contribute to enhancing their managerial skills.
