Background and statement of the problem
The main idea of the present research report is based on analyzing the way there is
relationship between effective school leadership and contribution towards performance of
students in their academic studies. Instructional leadership is playing a very crucial role in
schools that is helping in establishment of relationship at various levels (Steele, Steiner and
Hamilton, 2021). School organizations are working towards supporting improvement in students
overall performance by building up of effective leadership practices. In some situations there are
difficulties in laying down effective leadership on part of teachers and that leads to lower
performance of students. Present research is based on analyze the way different leadership
practices and contributes towards higher student performance in mathematics.
Problem statement
The student is willing to perform the present research work by investigation into the
problem and the issue that is identified. The overall planning approach is based on using of
different qualitative and quantitative research methods for the purpose of reaching to relevant
conclusions (Hwang, Wang and Lai, 2021). The overall eight aims and objectives have to be
achieved in order to develop solutions for the issues that are being identified in the course of
research work. For this purpose there will be use of both primary and secondary form of
information so that overall issue can be investigated identified and further resolved.
Research aim:
“To analyze the way in which effective school leadership impacts student’s progress in
mathematics.”
Research objectives:
 To analyze the concept of school leadership
 To evaluate the way in which leadership affects student progress in mathematics
 To analyze the challenges associated with effective school leadership process.
 To formulate suitable strategies that arises in case of effective school leadership practices
Research question:
 What is the basic concept of concept of school leadership?
 What are different ways in which leadership can posses a impact on student progress in
mathematics?
