Abstract

This case study explores how educational leaders in a UAE juvenile correctional educational center perceive their multi-dimensional responsibilities and roles. The dynamics of leaders’ responsibilities and roles, as well as the constraints they face, are conceptualized within the paradigms of functionalism, conflict theory, and postmodernism. To track views from different perspectives, data regarding leader and faculty perceptions were gathered through individual and focus group semi-structured interviews. The findings have implications for educational improvements and policy change in relation to the UAE’s juvenile centers and other similar correctional contexts.
