dc.description.abstract | This study explored the role of head teachers in improving academic performance in lower primary schools through instructional leadership in Lusaka District. It focused on one public and one private school, with 50 respondents, including head teachers, teachers, and learners. Findings revealed that 50% of teachers were unclear about the school vision, affecting performance. The private school head teacher was more hands-on in supervising teachers and providing resources, leading to better monitoring of literacy and numeracy progress. The study recommended that public school head teachers adopt practices from private schools and receive regular training in instructional leadership to improve learner outcomes. | |
