Abstract

ABSTRACT This study investigated the leadership practices of semi-urban middle school leaders in China. A multi-site case study was conducted using a qualitative research design, collecting data through interviews with principals, administrators, teachers, and parents, along with document scanning, observations, and field notes. Qualitative data analysis revealed three distinct themes concerning the contextual practices of the three principals. The findings highlighted that these principals implemented the identified practices in varying ways, directly responding to their specific contextual realities. Key findings indicated a focus on teaching, moral values, teacher development, and labor-intensive activities. The results carry implications for principals, educational practices, and policy matters.
