Principals and their work: Findings from the NZCER national survey of primary and intermediate schools 2016

This report looks at the work of principals in primary and intermediate schools.

The report draws on data from the NZCER National Survey of Primary and Intermediate Schools 2016 that was conducted from August to September 2016.

The survey asked principals about their workload and morale, their leadership development; their professional learning, their achievements; their challenges; and their career path.

The NZCER survey got responses from a nationally representative sample of 349 English-medium state and state-integrated primary and intermediate schools.
