摘要:Over the years, the Public Administration Reform has paved the way for many
changes in Qu¨¦bec school boards, which contributed to complexifying the profession
of school administrators, requiring them to be accountable at all times. The job
of principal/vice principal is now more demanding than before, since administrators
now need many more political skills to ensure that their actions are consistent with
national frameworks for educating Qu¨¦bec students, the partnership agreement, the
strategic plan, policies and standards in effect in the school board, as well as the
school¡¯s success plan, management agreement and educational project. In reality,
these changes have had a direct impact on the actual and prescribed work involved
for principals/vice principals working in Qu¨¦bec school boards.
