학교장 리더십 연수프로그램 개선을 위한 요구조사 분석

Once a person is hired as the principal after taking the principal qualification training, he or she is not subjected to any disadvantages with respect to his or her status, or any other ill-treatment, even if he or she does not receive any further in-service training for professional development. Hence, the absence of a systemic mechanism to make the principals invest time and effort in professional development, school principals’' participation in in-service training programs remains very low, if such programs get operational, at all. One of the programs for school principals’' professional development is job training designed to improve their performance in carrying out their occupational tasks. However, principals’' participation in the program is not mandatory, so that participation rate remains low. There is no standard curriculum, development of systematic programs is weak, and most of the programs are short-term training with the duration of one to two days, under 30 hours. The purpose of this study aims to investigate the in-service training of principal leadership on the theoretical basis, to inquire operation for the training system of principal leadership. Based on literature review, a survey questionnaire of 4 category were developed for distribution to subjects. 2,000 survey sheets were distributed to principals of school, 725(36.3%) of which were received and treated for frequency and cross-tab analysis using SpssWin statistical package. It was also shared among those principals that a new in-service training system should be developed which would promote principals to develop professional development in the teaching and learning implementation. Also, based on the findings, several implications were discussed.
