| dc.description.abstract | The main purpose of this study was to make an investigation into some of the factors that affect the roles and responsibilities of primary education female principals and to give recommendations so as to enhance their performances. The study was conducted in East Hararge Zone in Oromia. To meet the objective of the study, both internal and external variables were treated. These included the effect of s ocietal stereotyped attitudes, Job-family conflicts. In addition, leadership styles of male and f emale principals, and strategies to be employed to improve the female principals' work perJonnance were considered. In this zone, there were 51 primary education female principals and all of them were included in the study. Besides, 40 male principals, 50 female teachers, 30 male teachers, 9 WEO heads, 9 WEO supervisors and 9 WEO women's affairs were also included in the study. Questionnaire and Interview were used to collect the necessary data. Obtained data were analyzed using statistical tools of p ercentage, mean, Chi-Square, Ttest, standard deviation and one-way ANOVA. The result of the study indicates that there are s till stereotypical views considering f emales to have less capacity, and thus, expecting to gain the support of males in some aspects. The dual role of principal women would obviously share their thought, energy and time. Thus, it could negatively affect their leadership qualities in school. In addition, the observed result concerning difference in the managerial qualities between men and female principals showed no difference in the dimensions the groups we re assessed. It was evidenced that women exhibit good qualities of School leadership. Finally, coordinating discussion and experience sharing forums, special s upervisory support for women principals, allocating page portions (column) of educational publications and mass-media to f emale principals' achievements; s ocietal loyalty, the role of civic s ocieties and NGO were forwarded as major recommendations in order to help improve the p elfo171wnce of female school principals . | en_US |
