This study also explored if there was any difference in affect of leadership behaviour of principals as described by them and as described by the observers regarding students’ academic achievement.

LPI-Self was served over 64 secondary school leaders / principals and LPI-Observer was served over 128 secondary school teachers who were the observers of the prevailing practices. Students’ achievement score was taken from the annual examination results declared by the Board of Intermediate & Secondary Education.
