Abstract

The aim of this research is to examine the instructional leadership behaviors of school principals. Phenomenology design was used.

School principals generally control annual plans and community meetings, provide support for teachers in cooperation with teachers, show sensitivity to school problems, reward successful students, and reward successful teachers with social awards.
