ABSTRACT This dissertation explores how secondary principals understand and negotiate the secondary vice-principal role. The principal assigns vice-principal duties so there is no standard description for the vice-principal role (Ontario Ministry of Education, 1990). My conceptual framework, based on the notions of role and work, informed the study. Using an interpretive basic, generic qualitative study approach, I conducted single 60 to 90 minute semi-structured interviews with 13 secondary principals from four Ontario district school boards. Data analysis was on-going and used a modified version of the constant comparative method for themes to emerge. Findings indicated that secondary principals expect their vice-principals to perform both operational and instructional tasks, although the school day remains dominated by operational duties related to supporting students and staff.

  • Pursuing Her Initial Vice-Principalship: a Narrative Inquiry
    Pursuing Her Initial Vice Principalship: A Narrative Inquiry By Kim Melvin A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF EDUCATION Department of Educational Administration, Foundations, and Psychology University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright 2019 by Kim Melvin PURSUING HER INITIAL VICE-PRINCIPALSHIP ii Abstract The attainment of my initial vice-principalship position was a challenge and, as a result, I was curious if other women’s experiences were similar to mine. The aim of this research study was to examine women’s experiences pursuing their initial vice-principalships. In developing the aim of this research, two themes emerged in a literature review; career paths of women in educational leadership and mentorship in education. These themes described barriers and/or supports for women’s entry into vice-principalship positions. I used a narrative inquiry methodology to co- create and re-story six urban women vice-principals and principals’ retelling of their lived experiences. I found barriers and/or supports for women’s entry into vice-principalship positions described in the literature continued to exist. Although the participants’ experiences of attaining a vice-principalship ranged from 16 years ago to as recent as 5 years ago, their experiences were similar and demonstrated social reproduction of hegemonic androcentric beliefs. I realized although some of my experiences were dissimilar to the participants’ experiences, my experiences were also framed by hegemonic androcentric beliefs and I unconsciously accepted them to be true. In examining these lived experiences, the field of educational administration can better prepare for removing barriers and/ or providing support for women to pursue their initial vice-principalship position.
