At the center of any successful school or organization lies its leadership. There is an unprecedented interest in how educational leaders influence a range of student outcomes. School leaders are thought to be essential for high-quality education. There is substantial evidence that the leader's role in school effectiveness is pivotal in enabling teachers and other stakeholders to improve student's academic and non-academic achievement. Hence, effective leadership must be provided in secondary schools, as this stage represents the foundation for further education. If a good foundation is laid at this level, success is almost guaranteed at subsequent levels. A lot can be achieved when school leaders understand how to create a conducive environment for students learning and performance.
