Abstract (english): The overall purpose of the Commonwealth project on leadership in education assessment and development (Co-LEAD), was to find out school leaders training needs around the Commonwealth in order to provide some answers with regards to the professional development needs of school principals. The expectation was that this needs assessment study could probably form an initial base of evidence so that future research and practice might build on with regards to school leaders professional development.
A mixed methods approach (e.g., both qualitative as well as quantitative) was utilized in order to carry out this study. The questionnaire consisted of 46 statements which make reference to the main functions of school leadership, such as, School Climate and School Improvement, Instructional Leadership and Human Resource Management, as well as Relations with Parents and the Community. The gap analysis method was used for the questionnaire items. Finally, complimentary to the questionnaires, it was decided to have on-site visitations and interviews with real people on the ground.

Abstract (english): Policy makers in mainland Europe, North America, and Austral-Asia have launched programs designed to support leadership development in education. Based on this realisation, the Commonwealth Secretariat commissioned a study which was called the: "Commonwealth project on leadership in education assessment and development" (Co-LEAD). The study's main goal was to explore school leaders' training needs around the Commonwealth in order to provide some answers to the following questions and more specifically to the professional development needs of school principals. To date, research in these areas is scarce, especially in Commonwealth countries, thus the great expectations that the Needs Assessment Study commissioned by the Commonwealth Secretariat will form an initial base of evidence that future research and practice can build on with regards to school leaders' professional development. Within this context, the two researchers who undertook the needs assessment study developed the following framework which depicts the way forward in terms of school leaders' professional development for the 21st century. In particular they focused on the following guiding questions: "In what kind of context do school leaders operate, at the system as well as at the local level?" "How well prepared are school leaders in performing effectively their duties?" "Where do their needs for professional development lie?" "Which forms of professional development are preferable?"
