The essence of instructional leadership itself suggests that the more focused a principal’s work is on the processes of teaching and learning, the more positive the influence on student outcomes will be (Robinson et al., 2008). Instructional leadership, therefore, is a deliberate process of behaviors and practices that promote teacher instructional improvement and effectiveness and are tightly aligned to student outcomes (Alig-Mielcarek & Hoy, 2005; Robinson et al., 2008; Supovitz & Buckley, 2008).
