Ponte Academic JournalDec 2020, Volume 76, Issue 12 LEADING FROM THE MIDDLE FOR IMPROVING TEACHING AND LEARNING OUTCOMES: PERSPECTIVES FROM TWO EDUCATION DISTRICTS IN SOUTH AFRICAAuthor(s): Pinkie Euginia Mthembu ,Thamsanqa bhengu, Vitallis ChikokoJ. Ponte - Dec 2020 - Volume 76 - Issue 12 doi: 10.21506/j.ponte.2020.12.6 Abstract:District officials’ leadership is crucial in scaling up improvement for teaching and learning as it provides immediate support to schools. In this paper, we explore leadership practices as discussed by district officials in two district offices in Gauteng, South Africa. The paper explores instructional leadership practices of district officials aimed at improving teaching and learning in schools. It also tries to address the gap created by the tendency for studies to focus more on school leadership, rather than foregrounding district leadership’s essential role in the enhancement of teaching and learning in schools. A case study methodology we adopted, used in-depth interviews with purposively selected six (6) executive management district officials. The findings revealed that district officials’ leadership practices entailed developing a philosophy of shared vision between the districts and schools, providing clear directions for schools to follow, role modelling and close curriculum supervision, as well as, promoting district-community collaboration. The paper recommends a need for school district officials to engage proactively in all aspects influencing the enhancement of teaching and learning in these contexts.

The government is currently implementing measures to improve the quality of education in secondary schools. The Kenya Education Staff Institute is strengthening capacities of education managers and reviewing staffing norms in order to ensure the equitable distribution of teachers and thus improve on their utilization. The government is also providing in-service education for teachers in various subjects to enhance subject mastery, and rationalizing the curriculum with a view to reduce the workload on both students and teachers.

The research design used was descriptive survey method. The study population consisted of 120 public secondary schools. Stratified random sampling technique was used to select five girls’, four boys’ schools and 37 co-educational schools. Questionnaire, interviews and observations were used to obtain data. Data were analyzed by the use of descriptive statistics of frequencies and percentages. Data from interviews were analyzed qualitatively in an on-going process as the themes and sub-themes emerged from data. The findings of the study showed that headteachers’ curriculum supervisory methods were limited to checking of teachers’ professional records and gave less emphasize to departmental supervision, self appraisal and class-visits. Financial constraint was revealed as the major challenge which impacted negatively on physical facilities, teaching and learning materials, and teaching methods. Therefore, the study concluded that headteachers employed inadequate methods for the supervision of teachers in the sampled schools, preferring to rely on written records to establish the quality of education and recommended that they should take up their roles as quality assurance officers and ensure that all modern methods were employed in secondary schools. Further, headteachers should devise school income generating projects to improve on financial problems that currently result in student absenteeism, transfers and inadequate facilities. Key words: Quality education, quality assurance, challenges, strategies, teaching methods, curriculum supervision, teacher appraisal, headteachers.
