| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to asses and analysis the contribution of school principals in the implementation of CPD program in secondary schools of Debre Markos town. In doing so, the attempted to answer the following basic questions; are the principals aware of their roles and responsibilities in the implementation of CPD? To what extent the school principals contribute for the development and implementation of CPD? And what are the major challenges and or weaknesses of a school principal during the implementation of CPD? The research method used to conduct this study was descriptive survey. All secondary schools in Debre Markos town were selected using availability sampling technique. Seventy eight teacher respondents were selected to fill out the questionnaire. Nevertheless, 61 teacher respondents filled out the questionnaires properly. Thus, the analysis and interpretation of data was undertaken based on the data gathered from 61 teachers, 6 principals and 2 worda education experts. Furthermore, schools' CPD program reports and study report of the ministry of Education were incorporated. The findings of the study indicate that the contribution of school principals in the implementation of the program has been weak although the inspection of documents states that principals' contribution seems good. Poor school management, lack of the required knowledge to implement the program and absence of incentive has been identified as crucial behind the poor contribution of the principals. Establishing more efficient school management system, better training for the school leadership and implementing effective incentive system are some of the possible solutions. | en_US |
