Abstract
Principals play a key role in the delivery of quality instruction. Because the principal serves as the educational leader of the school, it is imperative that they have a working knowledge of effective instructional strategies and understand the needs of their students, teachers and communities. Every principal must be anchored in the school system whose roles and responsibilities change the school significantly. Republic Act No. 9155, Chapter 1, Section 7, Letter E, Paragraph 3 states that consistent with the national educational policies, plans and standards, the school heads shall have the Authority, Responsibility and Accountability (AURA) in managing all affairs in the school. Thus, the success and failure of a school depends on the kind of school principal it has. Principal then in the context of SBM requires a paradigm shift in leadership towards a meaningful implementation of programs in the educational system.
