Abstract

Although the delegation of tasks is vital to effective management, delegation is a complex process about which headteachers often feel uncertain.

However, the quality of training, mentoring and feedback provided by headteachers to support colleagues undertaking these tasks proved crucial in determining whether delegation was experienced as a burden or empowerment.
