principal autonomy

Principal autonomy refers to the authority and independence school principals have to make decisions about how their schools are managed and run. This includes selecting staff, designing curricula, setting budgets, and implementing policies tailored to their school's specific needs. The goal is to empower principals to lead effectively, adapt to their community’s unique context, and improve student outcomes. While they often work within broader education guidelines, their autonomy allows for flexibility and innovation in school management, fostering a responsive and dynamic learning environment.
