Examining the Role of School Leadership in the Digital Advancement of Educational Organizations

This study examines the viewpoints of primary education teachers in the Dodecanese Prefecture regarding the role of school leadership in the digital development of educational organizations during the 2022–2023 school year. More specifically, it examines the recent developments in schools in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, with a particular emphasis on two major themes: (a) the utilization of novel technologies to enhance communication channels among school leadership, educational staff, and parents, and (b) the significance of digital leadership and investment in educational organizations. The study is founded on a quantitative survey of 117 teachers, with data collected through an online questionnaire. After presenting the respondents’ demographic profile, a descriptive and inferential analysis was conducted using the SPSS 29.0 statistical program. The article concludes by presenting the results of the research questions, conclusions, and recommendations for future research. The study found a positive correlation between teachers’ level of education and their level of digital literacy. Nevertheless, it appears that the gender of the principal did not noticeably affect the views of teachers regarding their role in promoting the integration of digital technologies in the school.
