dc.description.abstractThis study has examined the role played by the principals in managing curriculum change in selected districts in KwaZulu Natal. The researcher has reviewed literature on different factors which facilitate and inhibit curriculum change. The study made use of interviews and questionnaire to determine whether principals perceived themselves as facilitating curriculum change and whether they were seen by educators as bringing about change in schools. On the basis of views from respondents, the study concluded that principals were viewed as facilitating curriculum changes, through such areas as consultation, participatory decision-making, team-building, school policy and vision. However, it was established that the majority of educators perceived principals as facilitating curriculum change, however, a notable number of respondents were either uncertain or did not agree that principals promote curriculum change in schools.en_US
