Dissertation
Support for new assistant principals
2008
Overview
This study is about the UCLA Principals' Leadership Institute (PLI). The curriculum of PLI, like similar programs in most other university-based programs, is focused on preparing students for principal positions even though the entry level job for most graduates is the assistant principal (AP) position. Many new APs who graduate from PLI do not feel prepared for their positions as APs, a decidedly different role than that of principal. This dissertation discusses how PLI can provide on-going support for its graduates during their first few years as APs and continue that support in the pipeline to a principalship. Discussions about the findings include the need for follow-up support for novice APs once they are hired, continuing a sense of community with PLI, and practical suggestions about how PLI and UCLA can continue to help APs once they are on the job. The study used a mixed methods approach that included a general survey, interviews of assistant principals, principals, and UCLA Principal Leadership Institute Fieldwork Supervisors. Two focus groups were also conducted for the study.
