The Gender Composition of the Pool of Prospective School Principals.
Smith, Laverne
Canadian Journal of Education, v16 n2 p198-205 Spr 1991
Although about 60 percent of Canadian teachers are women, only about 16 percent of principals are female. School system data indicate that many more women are obtaining the necessary qualifications and that between one-third and one-half now are eligible for principalship. Implications of social change for women's participation are discussed. (SLD)
