Abstract

This study examined the changing nature of vice-principals’ work in Ontario public schools. After the publication of the Principals’ Survey in 2013, nearly 400 vice-principals inquired about participating in a similar study; the present study was designed in response. We sought to develop a more comprehensive understanding of vice-principals’ work in changing times. This included determining the types of duties, activities, and practices vice-principals engage in on a daily basis, as well as the challenges and possibilities they face in their current work.
