This document discusses the differences between administrative leadership and instructional leadership for school heads. Administrative leadership focuses on managing rules, procedures, and administrative tasks, while instructional leadership focuses on student growth, teaching quality, and curriculum development. Effective school heads demonstrate both styles by setting the school's direction, managing systems and processes, promoting quality teaching and learning, engaging stakeholders, and nurturing themselves and others. Teachers can also demonstrate aspects of instructional leadership through mentoring colleagues and participating in peer review.

According to (Bradley, 2020) ADMINISTRATIVE
LEADERSHIP is a leadership style that focuses on accountability,
bureaucracy management, and enforcing rules, procedural
regulations and administrative chores; and INSTRUCTIONAL
LEADERSHIP is manifested by a principal whose actions are
directed at the ultimate goals of student growth, high expectations
and academic excellence. This type of leadership is focused on
curriculum development and alignment, monitoring and
evaluating teachers and the allocation of resources for optimal
instruction.

5. According to Clara S. Fowler and Scott Walter,
Instructional Leader is a leader who empower others to be
leaders. Today’s Instructional Leadership is a concept that
defines not only the role of the principal but also for
teachers who constantly refining their own teaching,
providing advice and expertise to colleagues through
mentoring and continuing education, and participating in
peer review both of individual teachers and of the
instructional program.

6. In school leadership handbook of excellence, James
Weber identified the main functions of the
instructional leader as:
• Defining school’s mission
• Managing curriculum and instruction
• Promoting a positive learning environment
• Observing and improving instruction
