1. THE PRINCIPAL AS HUMAN RESOURCES LIAISON
I. Introduction
The Florida Department of Education Bureau of Educator Recruitment,
Development and Retention – Principal Leadership Standards state that the school
principal “…recruits, selects, nurtures, and where appropriate retains effective personnel
as well as developing mentor and partnership programs and designs and implements
comprehensive professional growth plans for all staff- paid and volunteer.
II. School Principals/Administrators and Human Resources Management
The Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium Standards ISLLC Standards
state that the school administrator or principle “…has knowledge and understanding of
Human resources management and development and as well the administrator “facilitates
processes and engages in activities ensuring that human resource functions support the
attainment of school goals.” (ISSLLCS Standards, 2009)
It can be understood that the school principal or administrator is responsible for
effectuating successful learning and attainment of school goals through properly and
effectively managing and developing human resources within the school. This can be
accomplished through enabling classroom teachers with the support necessary for these
teachers to grow individually and professionally and to attain higher levels of education.
The school administrator or principal also provides opportunities for teachers to be
assessed in order to examine the areas in their instructional practice that need fine-tuning
and then makes it possible through flexible scheduling and funding for teachers to attain
2. higher education and training. The school administrator and principal understands the
value of the school’s human capital or that of its teachers and understands that time and
funding spent on teachers receiving higher levels of education and training is an
investment for the school rather than an expense. In fact, it cannot be overemphasized
how important the provision of advanced education and training is for building a strong
and effective instructional practice for teachers and in achieving the school vision and
goals.
III. Responsibilities of HR Liaison
The responsibilities of the school administrator/principal includes that of
providing guidance and support to staff and assessment of staff performance and skills,
and making identification of needs relating to education and training of staff as well as
coordination and recruitment of staff and for competency based selection and facilitation
of resolution of issues relating to HR in the school. The work of Norton (2008) entitled:
“Human Resources Administration for Educational Leaders” states that a great part of the
objectives of effective administration of human resources in schools is “lessening
personal employee anxiety and forecasting a more positive climate…” (Norton, 2008)
The responsibilities of the school administrator or principal in their capacity as
HR Liaison are various and diverse and require excellence in processes of collaboration,
that the school administrator or principal has effective communication skills and require
that this individual listen to what all constituents are communicating to them during
cooperative and collaborative efforts in school staff development and management
initiatives.
