School Management: A model for efficient principal performance

In the new paradigm of school management, the management that is intended to be installed in educational institutions is oriented towards the improvement of results, articulating decision-making processes and fundamentally enriching pedagogical practices. Management is conceived as a participative and integral process that articulates all the necessary mechanisms to achieve institutional objectives; it is a management where educational processes take place that cross all the actions and spaces of the organization, organizational processes that make possible or not a teaching and learning with certain characteristics. Within this framework, existing relationships are changed and a new meaning is given to the role of the principal and that of the teachers in a new dynamic. The figure of the principal is redefined within the framework of the management team and shares a policy that arises from basic agreements. This management team, chaired by the principal, becomes the natural animator of the changes needed by the school and the fundamental responsible for its results.
