The Principal Personality And School Characteristics

The research on the relationship between the headmaster's character and features of a school is one of the components of headmaster study. The purpose of any school to create features is, on the one hand, for survival and development and, on the other, to meet the demands put forward by the education for all-around development, which aims at promoting the student's integrated development and ensuring the healthy growth of their personality. The headmaster's character is a kind of professional personality embodied in the management and administration; it is also an objective psychological feature. The impact of headmaster's character on the features of a school is manifested in the headmaster's ideas for running the school, his management style, personal charm, and the ability to deal with public affairs. To promote the formation of a school's feature, the headmaster is supposed to study hard, constantly improving the capability, consciously overcoming the various shortcomings imbedded in the personality. While taking upgrading the headmaster's skills into consideration, the mission of the administrative departments of education is to reinforce the training program designed for cultivating outstanding headmasters. The administrative departments of education are also expected to select the right headmaster for the right purpose, which is the cornerstone for the feature-creating undertaking of any school.
