Estudio de la gestión directiva en tres establecimientos municipalizados de la comuna de San Javier, a la luz del marco para la buena dirección

Abstract

This article analyzes the performance of principals in three public schools in San Javier from the standards given by the Marco Para la Buena Dirección. The data collection was based on semistructured interviews, which were mad eto three principals and nine teachers in the chosen schools. The data analysis was done following the principles of grounded theory. The main findings of the investigation determined that the areas of educational leadership and management of organizational climate and coexistence are the areas that dominate the work done by school principals themselves in their schools. This occurs because principals know and use subject-matters proposed by the Marco Para la Buena Dirección in their daily schoolwork. However, teachers developed an analysis from their own work experience and observation of the teaching, administrative, and curricular work done by school principals in the schools studied.
